Grab your Boots and umbrella some places are fun to visit in the rain. Animals at the Oregon Zoo love to frolic in the rain. The Japanese Garden reflects rain drops and has hidden dry shelters. The Chinese garden has sheltered spots perfect for watching rain drop in the pond. Rain drops on roses, the Washington Park Rose garden and the Peninsula Park rose gardens are not too muddy and in full bloom.

If you want to stay inside there is the Stark’s Vacuum cleaner Museum or touring Bob’s Red Mill.

Have a fun weekend.
