Is how it was raining here Saturday. We got more rain than they did in Houston, but like most others, that storm was where my attention was at.

Until about 9:30 am, when I attempted to drive to the Hyatt O'Hare, and kept running into closed roads, about 10:30, they closed the last entrance to the airport, so I started home. That normal 30 minute drive took an hour and a half, plowing through 2 sections of 3.5 feet of water. I canceled a trip with a friend and stayed in for the weekend.

Last night I got a call from my principal, no school today! Too many roads are impassable and the public schools closed, so we did too!
