But there are lost of shallow dents in the hoods and the roof of Curtis' truck. My softtop looked okay. I had just awoken from a nap and noted how dark the skies were. Was in the bathroom and heard thunder. Asked Curtis to retrieve my drying tent from outside. I went to check the weather, but before I turned on the TV all hell broke lose. It was like someone was on the roof just pouring wheelbarrows full of hail over the edge. It lasted no more than a few minutes, but dumped a ton of hail--most about nickle size, a few egg size. Didn't see any of the big stuff they had on the other side of town (and like I had the first time my hood was clobbered). But, this was much thicker--everything was sheathed in white and the rain gutter by the house was overflowing with water and hail. And then it was over just as quick as could be.
