is the end near?

What a day. We woke up thinking we would just go get a continental breakfast really fast but the hotels breakfast was a sit down, we serve you. it was nice but it took a long time. We got on the road, drove for a few hours then stop at a rest stop just to go to the bathroom. When i got poor Matthew out he was soaked in pee. I gave him a quick bath in the sink. So on the road again for a few more hours. We lost an hour when we made it into Kansas and it was time for dinner. So we stopped again. Ate at a steak house, it was good. Then,,,started to drive our last leg of the day. John was so happy that we finally had flat straight land to drive on... So was the cop who clocked him going 87 in a 70. O well, guess we have to pay the $180 ticket. If we had the RV that would not have happened because the RV struggled to get to 70. So, we start to drive and would you know, the skys opened up and poured buckets of water on us. (remember we r in a pickup and our stuff in the back under a tarp). We stopped at MickeyD's for ice cream, hoping it would get better. As we drove it just got worst. It was soooo bad, John could not see. The lightening was sooo bad, we pulled off and called it the night. We pulled into the first hotel that had a covered entry. John went in to get a room. At that time lighnening struck, made the power go out for a little and all the outside lights went out. We sent the kids inside and as John and I were trying to get some of the things out the back.....it starts to hail. Only about nickel size hail... at this point I am done...well,clothes r wet, we are to far to make it early to the water park, the kids are all fighting.... what more? I think I better stop asking that question. lol ...good nite all, I am calling it the day.
