Re: LTE 2.0
So we have a little while longer to go I guess. Certainly enough to get to 40k.

Re: LTE 2.0
A friend posted an update on the situation there. They are expecting lots of flooding. If it's worse than what I saw when I lived there, it'll be pretty bad. Glad I'm missing it.YmoBeThere wrote:That shows how well I know the coast...ArkieDukie wrote:Actually, I was in Galveston.

Been mighty quiet around these parts lately!
Things are a little soggy here in Florida, but looking at Houston I will not be complaining about it.

Re: LTE 2.0
It's been a tough, stressful week. I've been watching from afar as a couple of friends, and at least one former colleague, lost their homes to flooding. One is a month away from having her first child, and they likely lost the contents of the nursery. One very good friend and former colleague was trapped on the 2nd floor of her home, with her family, as water entered the first floor (the water has receded now, thank God). A cousin in Baytown, whose neighborhood never experienced flooding, watched as water filled the street and inched toward her front door. Same for a friend and former colleague who lives in Friendswood. Flooding in Galveston worsened yesterday but was okay by the end of the day. My church in Galveston was set to house refugees but wasn't needed. Instead, they are serving as hosts for relief workers who have come to the area, and they are serving as donation centers for supplies that are being distributed to flood victims. I suspect that is the case for other churches in the area as well.
I'm not sure people realize exactly how bad things are. Since I lived in the area and have friends there, I see a lot through their status updates. I have multiple friends who have tried to make it out to work at shelters but cannot get out of their neighborhoods due to flooding. Complete areas of town are accessible only by boat. Other friends whose houses are dry have opened their homes to neighbors whose homes are flooded. One of my friends did end up moving to higher ground, staying with a neighbor. I see posts from both sides of the political aisle bashing the other due to their alleged lack of response. This really isn't the time for that. It is going to take the Houston metro area a very long time to recover.

YMB, I will keep praying and will donate. My cousin, Melinda, lives near Port Arthur, found out yesterday her home is ok. She went to her daughter's, in Austin. I feel so bad for the people and animals affected by this storm.

Re: LTE 2.0
The gas lines have started here in San Antonio. I filled up last Thursday so have a couple days worth of gas left. I may need to siphon from one of my other cars...
