I sure wish you all were leaving. Come on over here - cousin's house is big and you would like them. I don't like those trees either. If I have any left standing, they are coming down with chainsaw.
Shame my hubby isn't there to help with the plywood. He gets antsy to do something when things are going on and right now I have nerves bordering on raw.....like a few million other people. But can't let the girls see it.
I'd like to say if we made it through 8 years of Clinton, we will make it through Rita.......ok reaching here and I'm not very coherent - 3 hours sleep since Tues night. But I have just sent an urgent prayer up for you and your family to come through this safely with little or no damage. And if you decide to run this way - let me know.

john316..I live in clear lake near 2351 and space center. I evac'd on Wed to Austin, I am having to stay with my socialist brother-in-law. I'd rather be surfing.

Thanks for the offer. I don't think I'll get too much more sleep now. We went into town last night for more supplies. Having something to drink will not be a problem. We have enough liquid to float a boat...maybe I shouldn't have used that phrase. There are so many many people in town who are just puling over into parking lots with there campers.

I think my daughter at wal marts yesterday got them to implement a new emergency shopping policy. It involved her and some Katrina evacuees and a buggy filled with bread.

Just waiting now. You be careful as well.

When our electric goes our water goes because we're on a well. I keep waiting...
