Ike-atude

Here is our status for anyone reading this. John and I just spent the evening boarding up the house, for reference it took an hour to do the whole house and another hour and a half to raise the "drawbridge" on the one (singular) giant window in our master bedroom. To all future homebuyers on the Gulf Coast: DO NOT BUY A HOUSE WITH A MASSIVELY HUGE WINDOW!! Buy a house that has multiple small windows instead!! Trust us!!

As for the rest of it, I am now severly tired and cranky after that and we will be going to bed. In the morning we will most likely make the final decision on evacuation. Right now its looking like we will be getting the heck out of dodge. Our intended destination is Aunt Jeannie and Uncle Ron's house in Dallas, to join our fellow hurricane evacuee cousins from Louisiana, Rachael and Grant who are still there from Gustav.

We will continue to post updates here on our where-abouts if need be. We can also continue to be reached by our cell phones or by email. Should JSC have significant destruction, Nujoud is also on the MER team that may head to Huntsville to provide ISS support if necessary. Again, follow our progress here if need be.
