If it's heading right for us we'll get the hell out of Dodge.

21. To be fair, they won't be in the same car
Since we're not interested in flooding either of our cars, they both have to go. One kid, and one type of animal in each car. The three cats will all be in one big kennel...they like each other, but I don't if I'll be able to say that after this trip.

5. #1 Son is outside Splendora. We may go there.
For some inexplicable reason he still loves me.

6. Is that far enough away?
I figure my trailer might blow away, but we won't be in it when it does.

12. Me too
It doesn't look like it will though...So we're getting out. I've been taking stuff to the in-laws today...things we don't want blown away. At least they have a house. They're planning to go to Austin.

16. Yeah, but not far enough away from the in-laws!
Really, not people that I want to be evac'd with.

20. The original plan was to hang out at the in-laws house
However, with the talk of Category 4, they're planning to boogie too. Turns out my other half didn't want to spend this lovely time with his mother. I was impressed...he usually does what she tells him to. Of course, there is the factor that you can't go outside to smoke in winds over 100 mph, and she would NOT let us smoke inside.

10. Please take care of yourself, my dear Bike Writer...
We've had more than enough scares concerning other DU'ers..

I do NOT want to see any harm come to your or your loved ones, OK?

:loveya: :hug:

29. LOL...sounds like us
No dogs, but kids..no aardvark either, but we do have the cockatiel. At least we've got reservations, and backroads will be mapped so we don't get stuck on 45 or 59 or any other major highway.

31. Yep, this would be so much easier if the zoo didn't complicate things.
