ldyjocelyn Posted June 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 I'm back! It was great to see family, but driving home was rather scary. Three hour drive -- started in sun, but about 45 minutes into it, drove into a major gullywasher! Driving 25 miles per hour on a normally 55 MPH road, windshield washers full blast, couldn't see a thing. I ended up pulling over for about 10 minutes -- and watched the temp drop 10 degrees during that time as well. Finally made it back on the road, and drove totally out of it in another half hour. I'm back home now, and there was no rain whatsoever, and it's hot again. So, it looks as if Clay had some things to say today. I don't blame him one bit. What happened today scares me, frightens me, and makes me sad for our country. Yet, I have to have hope, as the one article suggested. We cannot live in fear -- but we also need to learn tolerance!
