Flooding

We swore two years ago that we would avoid the drive from Colorado to the East coast after a 5-hour traffic jam in Indiana in 104 degree weather with no AC. And it was Indiana that got us again. We had to take a three hour detour because the roads were closed due to the worst flooding in 137 years. Twelve hours straight of driving through rain and our van was soaked--- yet this was still a much better trip than the last cross-country thanks to Jen and her gang letting us crash at the midway point in Iowa City.
