Walking in the rain is over romanticized. My face is always wet and I can't see, with any breeze at all I chill, and my thighs provide a whole new meaning to road rash. When it rains we should stay indoors. Rain storms are why cavemen invented caves.
Walking in the snow is no better than the rain. I have the same set of problems with the addition of frozen nipples and no visibility to traffic. When it snows we should stay indoors. Snow storms are why the Sioux invented tepees.
I don't walk in the mud or when it's icy. Slip sliding away are Paul Simon lyrics not a physical challenge. When it is muddy and icy we should stay indoors. Mud and ice is why J.P. Morgan invented the mortgage.
This would be the appropriate time to give advice concerning dressing for Winter, Spring and Fall. It's simple...layers. You can always take off something and hang it on a fence post but you can't add a jacket once you are walking down the road. Aesop knew this 3000 years ago when he told the story of The North Wind and the Sun.
