Hurricane Evacuation

Here I sit on my vacation in Austin. Hurricane Rita is heading straight for my home and evacuation is mandatory.

George is driving my mother here to Austin as we speak, then he must return to Houston to ride out the storm at his plant.

There are no hotel rooms to be had in the entire state of Texas. Hopefully the spa will get some cancellations due to weather and we'll be able to stay here. Otherwise we will be going to a shelter in somewhere in Austin.

I have befriended a lady named Brenda whose home in New Orleans is still under water. She is just staying here until she can figure out what to do with her life. She is helping me keep perspective.

Keep us all in your prayers, please.

No way! Unbelievable! I'm so glad your mom can be with you, but that is amazing George has to go back! What about the kitties?
