Well, as Ike continues to barrel towards us like an angry monster, I’m barking orders to my kids to get their stuff together, and in one spot. Take only what you cannot live without, take just enough clothing for the weekend. We CAN do laundry in San Antonio, I’m quite sure!
The storm is projected to make landfall about 45 minutes from here (well, 45 if you drive like I do…). Natural disasters are natural disasters, they’re all bad. I would take a hurricane over a tornado, earthquake, etc. any old day – at least I can sit here and watch it to death on the TV before it arrives! I guess it’s the age old act of picking your poison. <sigh>
We’re leaving once we board up these last few windows, and heading to a KOA campground tonight.
I hope this old house is standing when I come back. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

I thought you were going to be heading back North by now… have your plans changed?

You guys be careful. My goodness, how many things are you going to have to deal with?
