My husband just called on his way home from work.

He works at the old Kelly Air Force base. San Antonio is expecting 25,000 refugees. Husband says that he could not get down the road from the wharehouse he works in .. there are tons of trucks with equipment to set up the temporary housing. LOTS of porta potties.. and at least 8 flat bed tractor trailers full of bundles of supplies. He can't believe the amount of action that has ensued since late this morning.

One thing for sure - the area he's working in is generally VERY empty - basically just the workers in the wharehouse facility he is in... so it looks like they'll be getting neighbors.. VERY soon. The news said that San Antonio may start receiving some refugees tonight.

Leave it to the Texans to get things done.

Thanks for the info, I am impressed with Texas.
