We Have Power!

Just to give you an update, we got power (but I have not turned on the AC yet). That has been nice so we can watch the news. About half of the people that I know still have no electricity. Thanks for your thoughts and we feel very blessed that we did not loose more than we did. Michelle used the extra time to clean the garage and John and Elizabeth have been working on their science fair projects.

Thanks Again.

Lots of Damage Nearby from Hurricane Ike

Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2008 20:35:50
Well we still have no power, but the weather is cool. We are one mile from clear lake and three miles from kemah / seaabrook. I have only seen a little news but that 1 mile made all the difference as you can see on the news/internet. I pray for all the people that lost everything. Our neigbor is letting friends use their house because they had evacuated to Austin, and the friends could not get into seabrook. We have helped neigbors cut up trees, etc but otherwise have tried to stay out of officials way.

Best always.

Thank you so much Elaine for letting us stay in Spring!

Well we boarded up the house and then we had a big cook off. We needed to get some of the things out of the freezer just in case we lost power.
