Dodging raindrops... LOTS of raindrops!

Linda and I were travelling east along highway US 20 when the skies opened up. It had been raining off and on all morning but this was something else. It got so bad that we felt the safe thing to do was pull well off the travel lanes and sit it out. After the storm let up, the view of the windmill against the lightening sky was pretty striking. We got back on our way but, within another fifteen miles, we were back on the shoulder. The next day, we heard reports that five to seven inches of rain had fallen in the area.
