Making it Through the Rain
It was Feb.12 2007 and we were camping on Long Key in Florida right on the ocean. All of a sudden it started to rain hard. Eleven inches in a 6 hour period turned the campground into a disaster zone. The campground road turned into a raging foot deep river and campsites with campers in them were washing into the ocean. Thankfully everyone made it out with little damage to their rigs other than lots of water damage. The water was leaking in right thru their camper and RV windows. Us on the other hand, were high and dry. We camp in a truck tent in the back of our pickup truck. We set up a canopy behind it and cover the whole thing up with tarps. We had no water damage and made it through better than almost all of the campers and RV's. In this photo the water you see is the campground road and the ocean is in the background.
