Evacuation Ike - Postcard from the road . . .

I'll try to have some pictures tomorrow - I have to find where I packed the cable -

The boys and I are in Seguin. It is actually very, very nice. We are in a large rented house on the lake, with a boat dock, three levels of terrace, and HD TV's.

I'd rather be in the hospital with my baby brother. His Trache has taken, and the hospital has put up it's flood walls, and prepared to ride out the storm, which has shifted slightly in that direction.

I love you guys, take care.

    I'm so glad you're in a safe and comfortable place.

    You've done what you can with and for Scottie for the moment. I hope you can take some comfort in the boys as you continue to ride out the storms.

    Sometimes it's good to be landlocked! I hope that you can properly relax for a couple of days and build up your emotional/physical strength again.

    From what we are hearing over here, Ike hit Houston pretty hard. I hope everything at the hospital is okay. I'm sending positive thoughts your way.
