This so-called winter here in Ventura County has been so lacking rain that this weekend's winter final thunderstorm is something to appreciate. We could have used more of this throughout the winter but hey, we'll take it, even this final winter weekend before Spring begins in a few days.

What to do when it is raining outside? Well here are some ideas:

Ventura County area shopping malls

Ventura County bowling alleys

Ventura County museums

Ventura County gyms and fitness facilities

Local events calendar

Ventura County libraries

Ventura County movie theaters

Ventura County painting and ceramics studios

Rainy day fun with the kids

And of course....there's also, staying out how and vedging in front of the TV.
