I looked at katrina as she passed over Fla, and I decided it was time to get ready of a major hurricane. I filled my 35 gal reserve tank but I did not fill the 55 gal reserve. I am pissed I did not, I could have opened Jim's gas station and made a nice profit once all the local gas stations closed. I will learn that lesson a fill both tanks soon. Right now my 35 gal reseve is on a rescue mission, couple of friends stock on the side of the road.
Local (Galveston county) government did a great job during this hurricane, but local MUD is going to catch hell, so are local food stores. All bailed oujt 3 days before the storm even hit! No water, no food, no nothing and the huricane was still 500 miles away! My business was open until tropical storm force wind hit San Leon on friday and open again this (sat) morning. Thank God no fire happened, but then again the fire department was entirely gone too. I am pissed, every damn local govenment person left 2 days before the storm hit. That is total BS, grow some bulls damn it, what kind of government just packs up and leaves? Only two local businesses stayed open, and mine was one of them.
