Boarded & ready to ride...plenty of refreshments & canned goods. Small generator this year...I'll have one for the entire house next year...what a pain. I even considered heading over to NO & paying Ray Nagin a visit!!!

Re: Ike
House is secure in Houston. Headed to Canyon Lake yesterday around noon and missed most of the traffic. I feel a little guilty heading out on the lake within the hour.
This is going to get ugly!!

Re: Ike
Glad you made it out of there, Snake. I think the worst of this is the folks who are not listening....it's "just" a Cat 2. I've been watching footage from 10 AM this morning and just the wave action was flooding towns, the surge wasn't even there yet! Supposedly the upper level winds are closer to a Cat 4. I have quite a few friends in Houston that can't leave, I hope they're ok.

It looks like areas around you are flooding and you're only at 23' at best.
Be safe.
