Ike.

Thank you for the safety concerns. We were well out of the way of Ike, especially since once it hit land it veered to the east. We got only mild rain and wind. But many people's lives are devastated... Galveston is a mess and Houston also sustained major damage. I would encourage you to donate cash to a the Red Cross because I just heard on the news that the cost of feeding and sheltering evacuees is over $50,000 a day in the Dallas area... and this could go on for weeks.

We are all lucky to be safe and sound and we should help those who weren't so lucky.
