We read our Bibles, ate breakfast and left. 500 miles to go to get to Billings. We saw a storm off in the distance while driving on 94 near Dickerson N.D. Soon we were in it ! It rained and began to hail. The hail stopped, but it rained so hard we had to pull off, like the other cars were because we couldn’t see. A couple semi trucks passed us and I was wondering how they could see anything. The rain slowed down, so we started out again. There was a semi pulled off about 20 feet ahead. We were pulling off again because of the rain and saw a semi stopped in the left lane ahead of the other semi. Right ahead of that was a jackknifed semi across the whole road. Good thing we pulled over and didn't try to drive when it was so hard to see. We wouldn't have seen the semi across the road because no lights were showing. Thank you Lord! We had one mark on our gas gauge, and it said we could go 40 miles. A semi driver let us know we could drive on the grass and get around the jackknifed semi. Luckily there was a gas station at the next exit. Gas stations out here are few and far between! We went through Pictured Canyon. Very pretty! Got to Billings at 3. Stayed at La Quinta Hotel. So nice!! Drove around to see where everything is and then ate at the Cracker Barrel next to us. Max loved the Cracker Barrell and wanted to know if there was one by us back home. Swam when we got back to our Hotel next door.
