Summer Rains

We survived not just the gentle summer rains but a major storm (2^nd most recorded rain within one day for this area).  It rained for hours overnight then kept raining off and on all day.  During a short stop of the rain in the morning, we found that many people left the campground while for other families the kids were out riding bikes and splashing in the puddles.  Though I hesitate to call them puddles since some were a foot deep. 

We had some rain come in the RV in a couple of spots but were VERY lucky in compared to people staying in tents. Or like, as in two sites from us, the people had 6” water under their RV.  They were able to find their chairs and tables they had left out but lost their shoes that were drying outside.

Soon after, a ranger came out and told everyone to leave.  The road was going to be covered with water so no one was going to be able to leave if we didn't get out now.  We drove through a lot of water on the way out.

Pretty exciting!
