My thoughts and prayers....

From Aliisa:

I have spent more time on the computer the last couple of days tracking Hurricane Ike and praying that it would not hit where my family is. Unfortunately, whether it hits in Corpus Christi or Houston, Texas my family being in the middle will get hit. I do take comfort in the fact that they have all gone inland, including Sundy and her family.

So today....

My thoughts and prayers go out to all my family as well as Sundy and all her family. I know that they are all safe. I pray that the storm slows rather than picks up speed and that their homes are all safe from rising tides and hurricane winds.
