catch or get the sun?

0 Hi,02br
00is it "catch the sun" or "get the sun" in American English? One of my dictionaries says it's "get some sun". I really don't know what's actually used in American English.02br
00Thanks 05002br

00PS: the meaning is either staying in the sun to get tanned or get tanned without wanting to, because you are in the sun... or something like that.010id1

00The weather has been gorgeous since Saturday -- lots of sunshine and temperatures close to 70° F. I spent quite a bit of time outdoors over the weekend, so I did indeed catch some rays. How about you? What's the weather like in your neck of the woods?0-
