If the balloon ever goes up in Indy, it's load up, head 6 miles to a buddies house with a key to his gun safes(multiple), and then head out the farm roads to our families hometown of 900, about 50 miles away...
No place like home in a storm, no matter what caused it...

Between now and then gasoline is going to be in short supply in the Houston area, and the price will rise in the rest of the country.
The price won't matter for me. I can't get it at any price.
Just woke up to find out she's down to 145. Before I went to bed, she was at 175. I'd like to get my hopes up, but is she just going through eyewall replacement?

They get to help out at home for a change, did Blanco ever get her all available LaNG there? Who cares... she's a lost cause.
