when there was a drought
we raindanced across the lawn
splashing through sprinklers

LOL, what a wonderful picture this one conjures up! My first date: I finished my coffee, got in the taxi and went home... I phoned her and she said she had a date with another guy! I can laugh about it now!!! I was very shy with girls when I was younger : )
