Hurricane Rita: Everybody safe

Last night we spoke to Lisa's parents and sister and they are and have been safe throughout the hurricane. We spoke to them when they had the worst behind them. They had power and there was no apparent damage to the house or cars. There was stuff flying around, like tree branches and stuff, but that was about it. They are not allowed to return to Dickinson yet, but it is clear that the Dickinson area was hit much harder than where they are right now. So, now we're waiting for the green light for them to return to Dickinson.
