Hurricane Rita

We are feeling, way over here on the Alabama/Florida border, some wind gusts from Hurricane Rita. It's not a Septembery-wind.  It's pure tropical air, hot and humid. 

We are also under Rita's clouds, and under tornado watches. 

She's a great big girl, spanning from Florida to Texas.

Unfortunately, the people that we have spent time with in Mississippi, the ones that we deliver your aid to, are going to get a lot of Rita's rain and some wind.  They aren't living in secure homes, and some are under tarps or in tents, so they could do without that rain!

I'll keep you updated from a local perspective.

Meanwhile, thank you for your packages that keep arriving!  We are going to continue to help Katrina's evacuees, and now we will include Rita's evacuees, who are here by the hundreds if not thousands.
