Lauren had Willy Wonka play rehearsal today so we needed to pick her up at 3 pm. George and I left to get her, and we planned to swing her back by home and then go to the grocery store. Well, long story short, we got caught in a flash flood. We were in the Durango, so higher than some cars we saw. The road became impassable and we were on a higher part of the road so we stopped. As the water continued coming up, we drove up onto the median. Several cars were blocking the road ahead, and the League City Fire Dept showed up and rescued a lady who was in a car up ahead. It was wild. We were watching the storm on my iPhone and we could see it wasn't getting better soon. We waited a long while, then saw a truck make it through, so we followed. We made it to Lauren's school to pick her up around 4:10. Then, we waited awhile longer and tried different ways to make it home before we finally found one. The picture was taken right after we pulled in the driveway, around 5:15 pm. Needless to say, we didn't make it to the grocery store! I'm relieved to be home, it's supposed to be nasty all night!
