What a wild night. We went camping this weekend and got hit with a bad thunderstorm.   I havn't seen rain like that in a long time.  It was so hard that it started coming through the tent.  We had to abandon ship for a while.  I made sure to move everything to the center brfore bailing.  There was at least an inch of water on the outside of the tent.  I used a roll of paper towels to soak up the water inside.  It was pretty dry so went slept in there instead of the car.   Happy  Father' s Day to everyone that it applys to!!
