Keeping It Dry On The Commute

So I learned the hard way that my overpriced Mountain Hardwear backpack is not waterproof or even water-resistant. It was definitely not designed for use in Oregon. That means it is time to dust off the trusty old Chrome messenger bag now that the rainy season is upon us. Plus, the Chrome bag is roomy and now I can pack all sorts of gear with room to spare. All of it safe from the elements.
