My familiy and I got out early. I'm in Avery Island with Fritz Fromhertz, Andy Lovell, and Bill Brundige, with their respective familys and animals.

I'm going stir crazy here, all I want to do is get back in and start cleaning up...but thats not going to happen for a while.

I heard from Prieur Leary, and he weathered Katrinas first hit in Florida. All is well there.
