Hurricane Gustav

Filed under Father | Posted by Saphrym

It’s coming. I’m worried. I used to live in Louisiana and my wife has family there. And they’re going to be right in the middle of this huge storm that is bearing down on them. Last time I had to deal with a hurricane, I was right there in the middle of it. It feels weird not looking over my shoulder this time. It’s not coming for us. But it is coming for family.

Heck, last time I sat at the front door and watched it go by.1 At least it looks like this time the evacuations are going right. People are leaving. Just not my family.

I hate having my hands tied. I feel useless. But if you guys are reading this,2 leave now. Please.

    Nature sure is capable of creating some powerful things.

    Now that Gustav is down to a category 2, it should not be as bad. But at the time they were predicting a category 5 making landfall. I’m still worried about them though.

    Thanks all. And they are all ok. Power is out, but otherwise no damage. They are lucky it didn’t hit as a 5. (I no longer live in Louisiana… just to set the record straight. So the hurricane would not have effected us. Just my in-laws.)
