Well on our last full day of driving across the country we started off in Ohio and made it almost to the Pennsylvania border before it started pouring down rain. And I don't meant just any afternoon heavy rain I mean 60+ mile an hour winds and rain sheets so heavy you don't have a wiper speed fast enough to keep up! This was a horrible storm! The thunder was so loud and close to us that it was rattling the car and John could feel the booms in the gas pedal. The lightning was so frequent and close to us that the hairs on my arms were on end! It was so scary! We finally out ran it and pulled off to get gas. WHEW! But in the 15 minutes it took us to fill up it caught up to us and we couldn't get out of it again. We ended up having to pull off in Somerset, PA and spend the night because it was so bad. Carlos was freaking out the whole time because the thunder was so loud and the lightening was literally like someone putting a strobe light right in your face! He was so scared and so stressed out the whole time! So when we were in Somerset we had to leave him in the car while we ran into Ruby Tuesdays and got dinner. We left food and water for him in the car so he could he while we did. We were gone maybe 30 minutes? We come back and the poor little guy must have been so stressed out he had eaten an entire super sized bag of Jerky! It was sealed and so he bit his way through the side! It was so funny we couldn't even be mad! Poor guy couldn't poop for 3 days! He is doing much better now that we are getting settled in but I just had to post about that storm cause it was seriously NASTY!
