My friend in Houston is evacuating up to Austin, TX, for the
duration of the hurricane. Fortunately for him, he hightailed it
before the freeways clogged up with evacuees. Did you catch the
news about the bus full of evacuees that got stuck in traffic and
caught fire? One person was killed.

Yeap.........in another (better) word.......PREPAREDNESS.

No, I missed that news. Okay, I go open up CNN now. Oh, but how
come MN had that tornado? It's not the side effects of Rita is
it?
On a different note, MG, have you driven west to Yellow Stone? It's
nice to do a group travel with friends and that is one desto on our
wish list.
