All packed up and leaving for the hunting lease in about a half hour. Got the Renegade and GP flinter in the truck with enough bullets and powder to hold off a small invasion.
Still a little squally in this area, but seems to be lessening. Lots of pretty bad coastal flooding justSouth of us.That Ike is a big-un and is pushing a 20+ foot storm tide. Been following FOX News and it looks pretty bad for the Galveston area and all along the coast toS.W. Louisiana. Already reports of people on their roofs justEast of Galveston. Say a little prayer for those folks in the strike zone- they're gonna` need it.
I hope everyone that decided to stay in Galveston remains safe (even though they didn't leave
) Been there a few times on vacation and stayed at the Sandpiper Inn off Stewart Beach. Kinda a 50-60s style place on stilts with parking under the rooms. Right on the sand. No seawall to protect it. I hope it makes it through ok so my family can go back and stay another time.
