I just talked to a cousin in Key West. She is staying. She has worked for a high-end resort for about the last 35 years. She says she is safe for a Category 4. (I didn't ask where her new Honda car was.)

Earlier in the day I talked to her brother in west Houston. He made it through OK -- but only by one city block. He says that he only lost power for about an hour while he was asleep. He said his biggest issues now are the winds and all of the trash that is drying out and blowing around from all the homes that are being gutted. He said that there is so much trash that the contracted services can't keep up with it.

I'm sure glad we had a family reunion a few weeks ago.

Stay safe.
