Thanks for your prayers; they are appreciated, even if it was laced with sarcasm.
Your prayers may be better spent on the people who tried to evacuate and are now stranded on I-10. I live in a home that is 100% brick and is not in an area prone to flooding. I have boarded up all the windows and have plenty of food and water etc.
Anyone with any intelligence considers all the options before making a decision. I feel I made the right choice and have not heard of any staging areas, so, we the people in this small community, come together and do whatever we can to help our fellow human beings. If you have info on staging areas be they formal or informal please advise as I have never heard of them. Or are they just something you invented to support your posts?
I live 30 miles west of Houston where is the closet "staging area" where I can go and sign up?
