Hurricaine Rita is in the Gulf of Mexico, heading straight toward Corpus Christi - a monster storm, a tornado the size of the state of Georgia, Joanna heard it described on the news. It is wierd not knowing what this monster storm will do. The belief is that it will probably turn and head toward Galveston or Beaumont, but nothing is for sure. Evacuations are massive. Everyone, I think is determined that we will not be caught unready this time - no reliving Katrina - maybe trying irrationally to rewrite Katrina. Corpus Christi is being evacuated - mandatory evacuation. Bob is on his way home with dog and turtle. It will be good to have a couple of extra days together even in hurricaine conditions. He has so much to do to get ready for his fifth graders.
