We left at 5:30 am to avoid the rain and flooding in Boulder and to go to California!
The weather in California was sunny and nice...we wanted to be there!
Also we wanted to spend time with my mother and sister/brother in law for few days!
We drove on Foothills Parkway...
after few miles the truck was skidded out of the lane and stopped sideway of the road.
We had to get off and used Airport Road and several roads to get back on Foothills Parkway.
Huh ohhh, the road barricade on Foothills Parkway!
We had to use other roads to get to Highway 25!
Water everywhere! Both sides of roads! Some flooding!
Finally we were on Hwy 25 and the traffic was terrible! Moving very slow!
Huhh ohhh no! We all had to get off the highway and entered that exit...it leaded us to Johnstown.
I drove to many different roads trying to get to other highway,
but most roads were closed.
We had to go back to Johnstown and stayed there.
All roads around the town were closed!
Then we were told to be at Roosevelt High School to stay and wait until the roads were opened again.
We had rain and rain all day...waited and waited for hours to know if roads were opened.
At last the only road, Highway 25 South is open.
We decided to drive south and go home in Arizona!
Emergency Announcement Every Few Minutes on TV!
OFF we go! We left just before 5 pm! What a long day!
