Wife and Kids are safe
Sep. 23rd, 2005 12:40 pmIt's been an interesting 24 hours. Yesterday Dema and the kids left the house, drove 7 hours, and found themselves only 25 miles away. With the van's gas dropping below half a tank, she opted to come home.
This morning we heard the roads to Austin were relatively open, however, and with many hours before the storm makes landfall, we chose to try again. I packed Dema and the kids into my Prius (which had almost a full tank of gas) and they took off around 9AM. I just heard that they arrived in Austin, so they're safe and away.
Whew! now I'm hearing the first rains are hitting Galveston. Buckle up.
