Wednesday, 21 September... Phone Calls on the Road
While stuck in traffic, I called my friends W&KL, who live 4 blocks from me.
W's mother almost drowned and lost her home, as well as everything she owned, in Biloxi during Hurricane Katrina, so I was really surprised that they were choosing to ride out Rita at home.
They were planning to call me to check on my plans, and encouraged me to stay with them, if I decided to stay in Houston. By this point, my concern was growing as to whether I could make it out of town. I hoped that with the next morning's light, the roads would be clear.
I also called my aunt and updated her on my progress and intentions.
