Ike's winds

Made it to Columbus intact (albeit without rain and less velocity) and did their damage. We are without power ( I am at my office - power of course!) we have water. Supplies are severely limited. We are looking for a market with food & ice that is open. Found food, no meat or produce.

The good news is people, pets and house came through in one piece. The kids think it is cool to eat by candlelight! We have talked with more neighbors than usual - that is really nice.

I have heard from most of my friends in Houston/ Galveston - better news. They are well, but obviously damage to deal with.

A Moment of Silence Today 9/11/2008

Please take a moment today to stop, pause, remember that day we lost so many!

Thank You
