Well, long at least. I left League City, a town about half way between Houston and Galveston, for San Antonio Wednesday at 3 pm. It is a 4 to 5 hour trip, depending on stops and traffic. By 3:30 am we had just reached the town of Katy just across Houston. We have a cousin there and we crashed at their place until 3:30 pm the next day when the TV said the traffic was moving. Ha. I spent 5 hours getting 17 miles. I arrived in San Antonio at 6 am Friday. Back home now. The lights never even went out here. No leaks or broken windows. We could have stayed, but if the storm had hit Galveston Bay, this is not a place to stay. Back to work Tuesday.

I've just sent in my registration for the TLA District 8 Fall Conference. If you are in the greater Houston Area it is worth the trip to Katy. Plenty of sessions to choose from, over 25. Among which is mine, Free Marc Tools. TLA...
