Storm of the century

Well, maybe not, but it was definitely the worst storm I've seen in a while. They weren't even forecasting it so it was a complete surprise. Monte called on his way home from work to say it was raining so hard all the cars were stopped on the interstate. Then he called to say it was hailing on his precious Durango, but thankfully he got home safely! We had 60 mph winds and we got 1 and 1/4 inches of rain in about 20 minutes. Then it was gone as fast as it came. We went out to survey the damage - my poor rose bushes! :-( And our garden looks like a monsoon hit it, and our big, sturdy fence is leaning now, yikes! But it could have been much worse so we are thankful for that, and Isabella slept through the whole thing.
