We made it home at 6:30 am this morning. We had a fine day of travel but left Houston late by an hour because of storms in Minneapolis. We had the most turbulent flight ever and I was very impressed our pilot even landed our small commuter plane in that mess. The display on lightening from the plane was thrilling and scary at the same time. We had two cars in Minneapolis and our drivers felt awake enough to make a go for home. We left about 1:45. We had to detour around the major highway we take home due to flooding but made it in a respectable 5 hours. It poured rain the entire time; monsoon type rain where Bill could barely see the lines of the highway. But a Dr Pepper, some classic rock on the radio, sheer determination and a bag of ranch flavored cornnuts later we arrived safely home. He did such a great job driving.
Came home to a clean house, nice comfy bed and got some good sleep. Bill had to work this afternoon so I am sure a nap will be in our future when he gets home. Thanks for following our adventure to and from Mazatlan. Please continue to pray for the work being done down there and pray for my water logged beloved state of Iowa. This flooding is unreal. I will try to get pictures from the trip on the blog in the next few days!
