Crazy Weather but Beautiful

 There were some neat rock formations sticking out of the ground just outside of Boise. I'm not usually one to take pictures from the car, but the desert was blooming!
 Oregon/Nevada border.

 We were driving along and I started seeing some crazy storm brewing. It looking like the clouds were coming up out of the ground. Then, the wind started blowing really blowing hard. The clouds became a wall. It was scary to pass a truck because we thought it might blow over on us. We did see one camper trailer blown over. Then, it started pouring rain. After the rain, the road was covered with hailstones. I'm glad we missed the hail. As we crossed the border in to California we saw two accidents. (The aftermath, not the actual accidents.) Climbing up the mountain the rain started again. It was pouring down. Them the fog came. It was so thick we could barely see the car in front of us. In fact the car came in and out of view as he used his breaks. We descended the mountain right into Lincoln. It was a wild adventure.
