Thankful for The News So Far

Before heading to church, it is good to see that the casualties - so far - from Hurricane Ike have been far less than anticipated. Haven’t heard from some friends there in the Houston area, nor have I seen images to indicate how Jamaica Beach (where we spent a week in May) fared the storm. My in-laws made it through some heavy winds and rain, the residual of Ike as it swept through East Texas. Praying for the best in the hours to come.

    Hi John,
    If you do hear anything of Jamaica Beach, would you post it on your blog or e-mail it. We moved from JB 1 mo ago (military). Our evacuated neighbors have been calling to see if we had heard anything. While I have been searching the internet for the last day, I am unable to find any news on the “West End” at all. We still own our house there as well. Which would be a sad loss, but our concern is for our friends and family in the area, as they face the potential loss of their homes.
    Thank you and God Bless.
    Cheryl.

    I’ve not yet seen a report about Galveston’s west end, except that the storm was pretty fierce there, Cheryl.

    Hi John, We used to hang out in Tyler, Texas. I am a special education teacher in Massachusetts and I still keep in touch with Shelley C.

    Small world! I understand Shelley moved recently (well, in the last year).
