that why, not that my, must be getting nervious. lol
I have the memory of an elephant :o)
What a great location, I’m jealous. Not this week though.
Welcome to Texas, rw! Hubby and I are both native Kansans and now live in the Lone Star state.
We are currently traveling in the RV driving across Kansas enroute to MO. I’m actually typing this as we drive east on I-70, internet aircard is working of a router in the coach.
NN, bravo on your responses to the Obama pollster, LOL!
Hurricane Sarah?
:-)
So far I’m fine, but any move north by Ike and I’m in for it. Right now if the track holds I’ll get strong topical storm winds and a 6-8 foot tide, no big deal.
BRAVO ZULU

Dang. I love the ocean....that must be nice to be right there (until a hurricane comes of course....)
Hope it will be okay.

Well, it looks like Galveston’s main concern at this time is tidal surge on the west end, with 4 to 8 foot tides expected. Voluntary evacuation includes Tiki Island, Dickinson, Kemah and Clear Lake areas. It doesn’t look like the winds are an issue right now.
That's odd. My house looks like a 9. :-P
Pretty wimpy response, stay safe in Seabrook, that’s where all the water piles up. FYI new model runs are out and inching north.
My cousin in Pearland is solely responsible for caring for his FIL...who is 95 and on diaylisis (sp?) 3 x weekly. His other house is at Lakeway in Austin...can’t win for losing.
i know how you feel, my parents live in a condo on the Seawall in Galveston. I’ve also got an elderly uncle/aunt in LaMarque, and cousins in Santa Fe and Dickinson.
From the get-go I’ve never had anything against Palin. Initially I was concerned she’d be too unknown, however she’s made a good impression and now in large thanks to the drive by media, people DO know her! LOL!
Husband thought she was an excellent choice from the beginning. I certainly like her principles and although I hate to see what her family is being put through, I’m hopeful she’ll be able to weather it.
The VP debate will be MUST WATCH television this year. And the media loves it’s ratings. I hope she cleans Joe Biden’s freekin’ clock!
well, with the size of IKE, Hurricane and tropical force winds will extend very far out unless the winds start pulling back in; we could see Hurricane winds out 100 miles from the center.
You’re in Dickinson?
hopefully they will have more than one debate
Now that living good, LaMarque might not be a good place to spend Ike. Dickenson/Santa Fe shlould be ok.
