[nagdu] Raincoats?

[Raven Tolliver via nagdu]

I have a very thin rain slicker for the Golden Guy that I purchased
from backsterboo.com. It is light blue and has sailboats all over it.
It's more for me than him; it saves some drying off. The Golden Guy
would rather work without the slicker, and doesn't care about the
weather. We have worked through rain, snow, and hail, and he never put
up a fuss.
