I feel sorry for you people down south of us here in West Texas, but we here in Lubbock went through our own just 2 days ago.. SUCKED.. I live out in the Cotton fields and when those get enough to soak up, they over flow the streets.. Just need to get the boat out!!

But now It is HOT, and Humid, feels like I live in Dallas or Huston right now.. Cant breath, and again I am sick.. SUCKS.. My defense system is shot..

Best of luck to Y'all down south and don't send it our way! :lol: :shock:

Ike is headed for Texarkana and Dallas..then on to Little Rock & Saint Louis!!

Local news is reporting that downtown Orange TX has 9.3 feet of water from Sabine Lake storm surge.

No electricity probably for 3 to 6 weeks.
