Damn near shat myself.

Glad you're ok! Same thing almost happened to me today as well. I was driving back to Calgary from Radium and first of all we woke up to massive downpour...so, we laid in bed hoping maybe it would die down enough to pack up the tent and not feel like we were packing a tent in a shower.
Alas, it didn't die down, so, we bit the bullet and got soaked while packing up the tent, then the drive home was long and slow b/c of no visibility. There was probably 3 different instances where vehicles either on my side of the road or going the opposite way slammed through puddles that landed all over my windshield.
16th ave was really brutal pulling into the city as well. Oh well...what doesn't kill you makes you stronger right? I dunno...that's what i hear anyway...
