Wow!! Did it rain today. Collin was to have 2 car washes today. We left home around 9am and headed to Big O for the first one. We got all of about 4 cars done and it started to rain alittle. So we rounded up the archery team and headed over to Burger King to get out of the rain. We sat there for about an hour when we decided to send the kids home. BUMMER!!! Next we headed over to Buffalo Wild Wings for the next car wash. (for football) They were washing cars but I knew it wouldn't be long till everyone headed home. Collin had pre-sold some tickets so we gave them our money and went home. On our way the weather really took off. Rain, wind, hail, fog, YIKES!!! it took for ever to get home. People were pulling off the side of the road it was so bad. As we turned into our road we could see there had been some mud/rock slides. It was treacherous. Collin was alittle nervous and kept asking if we could make it up our BIG hill. I said sure if we don't hydroplane we should be fine. We got up the hill and into the garage when BOOM thunder hit then lightning. We got inside and went to watch out the front window. The water was running down our hill and I kept waiting for someone in a boat to float by. It was flowing very heavy. The storm lasted acouple hours. It's over now but lots of clean up for some people. I will check the situation out tomorrow. Probably some sweeping will need to be done. Hope everyone is safe. It's monsoon season but I don't think that was a monsoon. I think that was a STORM!! Take care.
