May21 Project: Day 16

May21 Project: Day 16
June 5, 2011. Sunday. 16 days later.

We decided to keep trying to live our lives normally, but it’s hard. We did fly to Galveston TX. for a week of sunshine. With all the weird rainy weather in CA, I thought it would be good to get away and see Cindy’s family and make sure they are prepared. It may be one of the last times we get to fly anywhere.

The eColi out break in Europe is starting to scare every one. They say it’s just a stomach bug, but there are rumors that it’s more than that. At the Airport security, not only were they doing the BodyScans, they were taking swab samples from the inside of our cheeks. I guess they are trying to see if the same bug is showing up here. Who know when all the international flights will be stopped.

Galveston is almost a ghost town, now that everyone is afraid of the weather, and now that Hurricane season has started. The Internet is completely inaccessible where we are staying, and no one can get any information.

It has been nice seeing family and make sure everyone is safe and prepared. I will be reviewing emergency preparedness procedures with Max, so he can make sure Dianna is safe. I’m not worried about Sue, because Timmy has a good head on his shoulders. Tomorrow we will be driving up of check on Bud and Eleanor, to make sure their new home is well stocked and defendable.

I hope we don’t have any problems getting back home. Stay safe.
