Riders in the Storm

Man what a day. The storms rolling through Oklahoma and Kansas  really caught up with us. We waited an additional two hours this morning hoping the weather would break . Still we were caught in some heavy downpours as we make our way from Chillocothe, Missouri and into Kansas. After dodging one more thunderstorm we finally stopped in  Smith Center Kansas. Not many pictures today.




We stopped at a American Legion Post to wait out one of the storms. The people there invited us in to set out storm. Very nice people.

    Boy, after listening to the tv about the bad storms and tornados in Kansas and then seeing your picture, you all had a pretty scary ride! So glad you were able to get thru it all ok...good job Philip! It sounds like you met some really nice people during your stops though. Hopefully today is going a lot smoother and drier! Take care and can't wait to hear about Colorado. Love, Kathy
