February 10 is National Umbrella Day!
When I visited England a few years ago, I was chuffed to have remembered a mini-umbrella, which I carried in my tote bag every day, all day.
The only time it rained, however, was when we were touring the city of Bath, and it was such a light drizzle that I didn't even use it.
To keep the sun off myself, I wear a hat with a wide brim.
If you look in the back seat of The Cat Car, you'll find two or three compact umbrellas, just in case.
And you'll never guess how many times I've been caught in the rain while on my 'hood walks!
Yet, if I anticipate rain and grab my umbrella...it rarely actually rains.
