Stormy weather

Well, we got off to a good start this morning, sunny weather, & were making good progress.  Traveling with J, I get a kick of stopping at Flying J Truck stops.  Sigh, sometimes I am easily amused. - but don’t get used to it.


Of course, that couldn’t last.  In Nebraska we got into a big wind storm with patches downpour.  When there was no rain, clouds of gritty cut were blowing across the road, and we kept being pushed over the shoulder rumble strips.  In a big RV it was like being on a stormy ocean voyage (I imagine ... J has never taken me on a boat).  None of the hounds got car sick, but Celeste & Sonnet are whiners.  Opa! whines a bit too, but it’s so high pitched the humans can’t hear her up front.  Everyone can hear Celeste & Sonnet.  


Anyway, eventually Keith pulled off (as did many truckers) to wait for it to pass.   More ‘waiting; it took AGES.  Because even when the rain stopped at the rest area & we got a rainbow, radar showed it moving along the highway ahead of us.  I expect we’ll end up driving really late trying to make up time.

At on each point J let Possum out for a snuggle.  I don’t know what he did to deserve that.  J may pay for that choice later ....
