Well, heather and i made the trek down from Tomball this morning. Yeah, we know, government officials were saying stay off the roads--but i think they were primarily speaking about those folks who travelled to dallas, san antonio, and austin. Those of us that were close probably had an okay to return...at least that is how we looked at it.
The drive down 45 was much easier than when we went the opposite way. We only encountered one slow spot and that was downtown. Other than that speeds were at and above the speed limit.
There was no major damage to our house that we can tell. The only thing that was amiss was our gate to our fence. The latch had broken in the high winds. I'm actually surprised that my fence is still standing. All is well with the Horelica house. We have power and we will start the post hurricane clean up probably tomorrow.
I didn't see any major structural damage to any of the neighboring houses. Our back neighbor's large tree in the front yard is split in half and there are several other houses with uprooted and broken trees and tree limbs. It truly looks like we were spared the devistation.
Now, must turn our attention to those folks who need it. I do hope that those of you that still have to travel will be safe and have patience. Things will be okay...

Hey T and H. Me and the family are fine, we came back from Corpus this afternoon, all we had down here was a welcome breeze. Our dogs were a bit puzzled though. My brother and his family are headed in from College Station tonight, they live in Palacios. Where did Heather's family go to? Check your email for my story..good to hear everything went well.
