Lucky!
You are blessed indeed that your boys were being watched over and that the stranger was there to lend a helping arm or two.
We get flash floods all the time in Hawaii, so I can understand what you went through as far as driving and getting drenched. And one of my hanai brothers and his friend got caught behind a waterfall once when they were camping with my parents. I had opted to stay home that weekend, otherwise I would have been behind that waterfall as well. Instead, I just read about the rescue (helicopters and all) in the newspaper only moments before my parents got back home to tell me about what had happened.
Water is certainly a powerful force.
