The news coming out of the Houston area has been so tough. I really feel for those folks - having "been there, done that". We were still in Houston in 1961 when Hurricane Carla hit. We had four small children, with Jean only one month old. We had no damage to the house, but were without power for a week. And that was where Dan Rather got his start - broadcasting for the Houston CBS affiliate from Galveston, through the whole storm, with one of the first weather radars in the country. He was called up to the network soon after that. We have heard from my cousin - she got power returned this afternoon, and had only some limbs down in her yard.
Another beautiful day in the New Mexico mountains - cool and sunny. An "old school chum" and her husband who live in El Paso came up to visit us at the ranch today. They're very interested in the history of the area, so it was a treat for them to see the place and meet John and Marty and talk about history. We'll see them again when we return from the Copper Canyon trip. John took us on another ride up into the hills again. The flowers are getting even prettier, with even more in bloom today than yesterday.
