Cracking Open Sentences (based on the work of Georgia Heard)

Simple sentence: It rained a lot.

Cracked Open Sentence: Wind, liberally sprinkled with drops of rain, whipped across my sodden pants legs, chilling me to the bone, as I slogged across the water-soaked long. Deep footprints were etched in the lawn as I doggedly bent forward into the wind wrapping my lined rain coat around my shivering body.
