Houston, We have a problem.

Houston Chronicle:
As Hurricane Rita chugged toward the Gulf Coast as a Category 4 storm today, Houston's mayor ordered residents living in vulnerable areas such as Clear Lake to evacuate, asked employers to let off non-essential workers and suggested schools cancel classes.

I talked to Kay and Dad today, and my sister Lisa too... our oldest kiddo Jack will try to make it to Lisa's house. A nice home-cooked meal from relatives in the area would probably be welcomed by Jack and appreciated by his mom!

His apartment is on the 3rd floor in Clear Lake... good news is - it won't flood... bad news is - he may not have a roof when he gets back.
