If you or your family is in the path of Hurricane Katrina, if you would like to, please "sign in" here so that we can keep track of our people as this storm progresses, especially after the storm has passed.

Hi, Howlin. I'm signing in. I'm up in the northeast corner of Louisiana hoping we only get sideswiped by Katrina. I saw lots of evacuees stopping by our town today getting gas & stopping at our Citgo & Burger King. Most were heading toward Dallas, but most motels are booked up all across the I-20 in north Louisiana.

We are all praying hard.

Daughter and son-in-law evacuated from Diamondhead, MS (along the LA-MS line) on Saturday afternoon; riding out the storm with his parents in a small community west of Jackson, MS. However, Katrina could still be a Cat 1 storm when it moves through central MS. Additionally, have a son and another daughter in northern MS, about 60 miles south of Memphis. The only family members "in the clear" on this one are my youngest daughter (who lives in northern Arkansas), and yours truly, on the eastern seaboard.

Prayers to all of you in the Gulf Coast Region, and especially New Orleans.

We'll be seeing you on the other side...

I'm in Macon, GA, so I should be okay, but I have a cousin and her husband in Seminary, MS.... just talked to them a couple hours ago and they were leaving the mobile home to stay with some of his family.

Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers along with everyone else!

Well, howdy! Welcome to the neighborhood. You did settle on the other side of the river then, huh. I sure hope we stay high and dry tomorrow.

Thank you both for the pings!

What a nice offer, WKB!
You are a very good and thoughtful neighbor.
