Our RV Journey – Summer Trip – Day 50
I can’t believe the last post was the RV Prayer.
We had bad storms tonight and boy, did we need the RV Prayer! Things we love
about our campground are all the trees that offer so much shade and the farms
and fields next to us. A terrible storm struck tonight and the things we love
worked against us. Heavy winds lifted our gazebo and wrapped it around a tree.
The storm and all of the lightning struck down so many branches and trees. We
are lucky we are all unhurt and the camper survived. We have never had a storm
like that and had the camper out. The kids and I left to seek shelter, but my
hubby, the captain of his RV, wanted to stay and ride out the storm. Do you know
he called me shortly after the storm hit to come get him? After branches were
falling all around him and gazebo finally blew away, he decided he had enough.
It was like an obstacle course traveling back 2 miles to get him. I was
reminded of scenes from Jurassic Park, which we recently watched again. Scenes
of driving in the pouring rain around branches and off road to get to my
destination. I couldn’t actually get to the camper by car. I had to park on
higher ground and run on foot over a few rows. I was glad to see my hubby and
the camper were intact. We sought safety for a while. Then returned to clean up
what we could. The power is out and there is no water, however we are sleeping
safely in our camper beds tonight.
Hope you are all dry and safe. Sweet dreams.
~ Happy Camper
