Yikes - Ike!

I am amazed by the power and size of Ike - and like watching an accident happen on the freeway - can't seem to stop linking to the National Hurricane Center for updates.  Ike is going to chew up Texas and spit it out before making a right turn and drowning the midwest.

I'm not waiting.  I've already made a donation to the American Red Cross to help with Gustav, but just did again for Ike.  I am blessed to be where I am, high and dry, and not evacuating my home, business and daily life, not knowing what I will find when I return.

Mother Nature.  Wow.
