    Default Houston folks

    I hope everyone is ok.
    My daughter is in Harris county and her first floor apt is under water. She just got married last Oct. and lost everything they had, including their cars, one was brand new.
    I haven't heard from my step son yet, also in Houston, but he has a habit of forgetting to charge his phone.
    Rest in Peace Charlie!

    As long as "they" are okay - all is good. Man Ray - this was a STORM. The thunder blasts were like bombs! Lightening was freakish. No kidding. Rain overtook drainage in no time! This was NOT a normal Houston rain! My yard is a freaking lagoon!

    Stacy and her husbands apt. was 30 feet from Bray's bayou. I guess the bayou is bigger now. Shes still stuck in the hallway about her apt.
