Amazingly, we came through fine. My son stayed at the house, and luckily was fine! We had no trees fall on the house and no damage. We really thought we might lose part of the roof in one area and had moved the good furniture out of that room before we left, and boarded up our sliding glass door in there and some windows. It could have been a lot worse if the eye had come in directly at Galveston and headed up I-45 like Alicia did. We had a tree down on my sister's house next door in that one and roof damage and no power and water for 8 days. This time we have power even! Already. We evacuated to Austin to my daughter's house and are fine over here, will probably return tomorrow.
