Rain Shadows This Summer?

SugarSkullParade
Last week I read about a British artist named Andy Goldsworthy. He is currently constructing a massive stonework at The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., to be called "Roof". But what caught my eye was his concept of "rain shadows", wherein people lie down on the grass during a rainstorm. If you hold your position until the rain stops, you leave behind an impression in the grass. This sounds like a productive afternoon to me - anyone else interested? If you're in the Chicago area and would like to give it a whirl this summer, contact me.

Here is the article.
