wish i could but have no news on anyone we know at this point. really feel kind of brain dead what with the unknown of your home and possessions and your lives, really roughs you up. saw my grand kids for the first time yesterday after they were stranded and could not get out and it was emotional for me and them especially when you think of the families who have lost loved ones. have to love all these people who drove here from louisiana (the louisiana navy they call themselves) and other parts of texas with their boats so they could go in and bring people to safety. my son and i went into a one of the few open businesses, a subway and while in line was talking with three older guys and could tell they were helpers and they were part of the louisiana navy, taking a food break so i paid for their stuff and told them thanks for coming and sharing what they had. just so many people not caring about themselves but wanting to help anyway they can. they told me that when baton rouge had their huge flood, many texans came over with their boats to help so they were just returning the favor and that felt good. its is during these types of events that you wonder how we ever have wars because people take care of people. it is the leaders of countries who need to be locked in a room to figure things out or fight it out individually but keep their people from having to go to war and fight.
