Day 19...Big storm


This was going on to Phoenix. Can't hardly see the mountains. But so much worse coming back. I was to nervous to take pictures then.
*********************************************

Hi everyone, Welcome to sunny AZ! ha.. not so sunny today. It has rained alll night and day. There was even a tornado about 22 miles from here. Knocked down 17 light poles so we don't have any elec. and only one little candle. But we have a couple of flashlights. The wind took some of the AZ room netting at a few places here. Bent up the poles. So glad we decided to get a hard metal roof. I made stew in the crock pot. Needless to say it didn't get done. We left for Phoenix about 11 this morning. We got our shopping done. Had to get bedding for the new bed. It rained lightly all day but on the way home it rained so hard we could hardly see the road. The exit to our place was flooded so had to turn around and take the next exit. Now I have the stew in a pot on the stove so I hope it gets done soon. I am hungry. While we were parked in front of the store a big guy came up to the car and was begging for a doller. He said he was out of gas. Mel, being the giver he is, he always hands out when someone asks. Anyway, this guy took the money directly next door and bought beer. Funny but kind of scary too when he came to the car. I hope your all safe from the ice. Take care and God Bless
