Sunday's Update

Just a quick update regarding our progress in recovering from the storm. We still do not have power. Tonight 2 streets up from us got power back on, so we're hopeing tomorrow will be our luckily day.

We adventured out this afternoon to check out the condition of my Cafe. I have 3 cracked windows and one shattered. Water damage to the carpet and several other pools of water through out the rest of the cafe. We're going in tomorrow morning to clean out the freezer and coolers. We did have power there, so we're hoping to receive our deliveries on Tuesday and open back up on Wednesday.

Our neighbor shared with us, that the city of Friendswood was going to be shutting off water tonight in order to rebuild the pressure. If that's the case, we're hoping it's only for a few hours, although we still have all the water we gathered on Friday.

Greg has several guys from work who lost their homes completly, one said there are 2 houses on his street missing altogether. A friend from church, apparently lost her roof totally and her house in water damaged beyond repair. It's crazy what mother nature can do.

The battery on the computer is about to go out. We'll post some pictures tomorrow.
Hope everyone is doing well, especially those of you who are in the Houston area.

Love,
T and G

Praying for you! Jon's family is okay too - although his mom's house has a branch through the front window and a tree fell on her garage and on the corner of the roof on the house too. She was there for Hurricane Alicia in 83 and said this one was 75% worse. I'm so glad you are okay! Sending HUGS from Colorado!!!
