Got Gas?
I just got home from work. I've been free-lancing at Channel Two this week. I'm done until the storm is over. I've covered more hurricanes than I can remember. Nothing like this, however.
And I've never seen anything like this hit Houston and nothing has even hit Houston. I know so many have been stuck in all the traffic. Fortunately, everywhere I had to go today was smooth sailing.
My folks left Pearland and made it to Cleveland, TX. This trip should only take 1 hour, 12 minutes. They left this morning around 8 or 9 am and made the 63 mile trip in just under 13 hours.
I did a live shot from the George R. Brown convention center. They were loading up folks from Louisiana to send to who knows where?
Also, I have never, ever seen so many gas stations without gas. It is so bizarre.
As Rita comes in (and I still have power) I will post some pictures and updates. Of course, if it keeps moving away from us, there may not be much to show.

Feeling safe here in beautiful Magnolia Texas! I've fielded a call this morning from members of my father's congregation who have friends stuck on various highways with no water and/or gas. I guess none of the relief going to I 45 is getting to folks on 59! Yuck! Amazingly, someone was able to get to this person!
Glad you and Deann are getting out!
Hey--VERY safe up here in KY. It's beautiful to see an actual autumn!
