Back to the War Zone – IKE

Posted on September 16, 2008 at 10:14 am by with Leave a Comment

We are heading back to the war zone caused by Hurricane Ike. Should be there by 5pm. We are told there is no expected date to have power and it could be 3 – 4 weeks still.
The weather has been cooler and we pray that it stays cool.

We will pick up some dry goods and fuel up on our way back to Houston. Thanks for the prayers and kind words. The cell phones are working a bit more.

Sunday – Hurricane Update 9:58pm

Posted on September 14, 2008 at 10:02 pm by with 1 Comment

Hello! We made it through the storm just fine. Our pool and trees didn’t have fare quite as well. We have no power and no phones (phones very sporadic). It has been crazy to say the least.

I lost a huge Oak tree into my pool and hot tub. The house is just fine. It is definitely like a war zone. Today I took the family to Keller, TX which is near Fort Worth. We are going to pick up some supplies and then head back down to the war zone.

They say it could be up to a month before we have power. More updates to follow on Hurricane Ike and the aftermath.
