I just got off the phone with my sister who lives 20 min from Galveston, TX. She is in progress of evacuating this evening. She said gas prices are not climbing on the average 2.64 a gal. Also she says *her words* "Texas has Got it Down!* She says when the hurricane was announced Texas already had places for evacuees and buses are in place already in Galveston and surrounding areas that do not have a way to Vacate.
Texas Rocks!
Nelson, don't worry they will be just fine, just need to leave early so they can beat the traffic. Same for the rest of you in the Storm path. Don't forget your pets and important papers! Thinking of all of you and my own family down in the Gulf area.
