We're all fine. It's basically all over for us. The rain has moved out to the Big Bend area. The people in the valley just have to rebuild what's needed and get power restored to everyone. It looks like the damage to South Padre was a little more than originally expected, but I'm sure they will be back to normal very soon.

Not trying to make too little of the storm. I'm sure there are many down in the valley who will suffer financially and are having to deal with a lot of storm related issues. They have our greatest sympathy. I don't think there were any fatalities, at least none that we have heard of. I'm sure there will be some needs that will have to be met in the coming days. We usually hear from churches who were affected by flooding who need supplies and assistance.

It's back to normal for us around here, until the next threat in the gulf.
