Checking In

So far, so good. Stella, Tabitha, Samantha and I are safe. Wind and rain were less than anticipated. Heaven help the people in places more directly in the path of Rita; we were mostly spared. We're staying put in Stella's apartment; there may yet be rain bands and possibly significant flooding. I'll check in again when possible.

Aside to andante: it's kitchen blogging, not bathroom blogging. :) My ancient laptop will not fit in the bathroom, and the kitchen has both a power outlet and a phone jack.

Later, folks...
