The Land of Oz....and Toto too!

Well, Amarillo was nothing if not exciting. We were in storm warnings last night, but thought they would subside.
Went to bed about 10, and at 1:00 a.m. I woke to the sirens. Jumped up and grabbed stuff, the dog. We ran to the tornado shelter, thank god they had a basement! It rained and it hailed, the wind blew, but we didn't have rotation right there. The underpasses on some highways were flooded and cars were stalled. I 40 was closed. I 27 was closed for a time. We stayed in the shelter until 2:30 a.m. The Basement was in the white steel building that held the pool, laundry and game room.
Had to wade in calf deep water from that gate, across the road in front of our coach to get back in. Dried off, took Tylonol and tried to mellow out to get some sleep. Didn't happen due to all the heavy snoring coming from the same room......the same bed....finally fell asleep about 4:30 and got up at 6:00 Watched the water receed in front of coach and drove around to see if we would be able to get out. Thankfully we were able to back out onto pavement. Left Amarillo in the fog....(that should be a song) and got here to Liberal and the land of Oz about noon. The great guys at the Central Power Detroit Diesel shop got our coach in the shop right after lunch and installed the remaining six shocks. We went for lunch and picked up some supplies. Drove around Liberal for a bit and went back to the shop. They were finished about 4:30 so we drove out to the Western Star RV Resort, 5 miles east of Liberal. We are just out of the Thunderstorm Warnings now, hopefully it will be a quiet night and I will get some sleep. We will move on north to Oakley Kansas tomorrow.
