After Ike

Bye, Ike. Hello, recovery.

Yours Truly is back a’bloggin’ — after an unplanned trip to Mississippi thanks to a certain hurricane.

Our family’s stay in a church friend’s home outside Vicksburg was nice.

Coming back to property damage you hoped to avoid was not.

You can’t complain though. You know that thousands of people in Bridge City and the Bolivar Peninsula got hit harder.

They need help, and fortunately there’s another way for folks to do it.

It’s called the Texas Disaster Relief Fund, and it has already received more than $4 million in pledges.

If anyone has some cash to spare, this is the place to put it.

By the way, Wednesday is the third anniversary of Hurricane Rita.

Pardon us for not celebrating.
