Decisions Decisions

Here we go again ! Just get settled in and ready to have a party and here comes a Hurricane . Looks like we have to make a decision this afternoon where to go , sure ain't gonna be towards Louisiana ! I expect Terlingua will see me sooner than later but haven't made up my mind yet . The other thing is we have quite a few folks flying in for this big party and we need to get on the phone to restructure their plans also , my friends here are reluctant to bugout for a number of reasons . One is the difficulty in returning and another is because of the over dramatization of the severity of these pesky storms . A little less drama in the reporting would probably make people take these things a bit more seriously . Speaking of which , the Corpus Christi TV stations are doing a great job , no running in circles and shouting just good solid information and everyone thus far appears to have their heads on straight and telling folks what needs to be done and reporting the evac routes and shelter locations  . The old saying "never let them see you sweat " means a lot when you are in a tight situation , staying calm and organised will save more lives than some weather guesser leaning into the wind trying to get a better rating or sell more advertising will ever do .
Other than this niggling hurricane , life is good and right now the sun is shining . Time to get busy and make our plans , expect I'll give an update later today and see how everything shakes out
