Home again

We are home safe and sound. Our Parish has a system in place where you can sign up your phone/text/cell numbers and an automated message will alert you to any new information. The text message came in at 9am yesterday. We had planned on going to the zoo, but once we got news that the mandatory evacuation was lifted, we packed up and headed out. We got home around 11 or so last night. OK city is a loooooooong drive. It took us about 12 hours to get home between the stops and the traffic. At one point on rt. 10 in Texas Jim noticed that about 80% of the cars were from Louisiana. Everyone was going home.

Moses did fantastic in the hotel room and in the car, he really is such a good dog.

There wasn't any damage on the house, lots of leaves and debris in the pool, some yard pick up to do. But we got really lucky with the path that Gustav took.

Jim went back to work today to help restart the plant.

For me today is all about unpacking, laundry, cleaning up, and putting everything back together.
FUN TIMES!!!@@
