Umbrella Races

A favorite thing for my friend and me to do on a rainy day is ride the train and have umbrella races. I sit on one side and my friend on the other. We open our umbrellas and hang them on the bars above us.  The first one to go to the other end and back wins.  The thing is, it sometimes takes forever for the umbrellas to move. It’s like cheering turtles on in a race. I love it!  It’s the little things about this city, I tell you…
