What a day I had yesterday! After leaving Pittsburg State University where I was interviewing teacher candidates I started my long drive to Wichita for teacher interview day today.
The wind was terrible but the tornado was even worse. Outside of Independence I saw the twister that hit that city as well as was in the path of the terrible storm. It was the worst driving conditions I have ever been in. It rained about 4 inches in about 15 minutes.
After finally driving out of it, I went to a rest area on top of a hill off highway 400 and saw a beautiful rainbow on the back side of the storm.
I appreciated that sight, believe me!
When I got to Wichita, all of the east side was without electricity because of the storm they had earlier in the day. Ever try checking into a motel that has no electricity? No computers, door lock key cards, on-line reservations……and the best part, the young man at the front desk was working his first night by himself. Felt sorry for that young guy! Also right outside my motel the grass was on fire from a downed power pole. It was certainly an interesting day.
But God, thank you for the rainbow and the protection you gave me and several across Kansas yesterday. I’m looking forward to a quieter weekend!
