With all this sketching talk lately, I was wondering what everybody does if it's raining like crazy. It was coming down in buckets over the weekend and I had 8 inspections to do. There was no time for a rain delay so I did the best I could under the old umbrella. It's been a pretty dry summer up here and I forgot about the challenges of working in wet weather.
So there I was, standing in the wind and pouring rain with the umbrella in one hand, the clipboard in the other, and no hands to write down measurements. I must have looked like one of those guys in the circus trying to keep all the plates spinning on the ends of the sticks at the same time. What a pain.
The humidity was a big factor too. Even if I managed to keep the rain off the paper, the humidity took over and the paper was soaked.
Any thoughts? There's got to be a better way.
