A 60% chance of showers is different from rain.
The last time we went camping we had showers on Fri nite and Sat but
late Sat and Sunday were nice. I'm not a fan of being damp (showers)
but can live with it, "rain" on the other hand goes along with being
wet. Being 'wet' if I'm not swimming is just not fun <g>.

All that said it depends on how badly I want to get out....
