Hurricane Rita

Rita missed me altogether. Not even any rain. I was ready. Had boarded up all windows and cleared the yard of lawn furniture, etc. Since I live so close to the water, I watched this storm very carefully. The winds and rain aren't near as bad as a storm surge. A wall of water that could flood your home. As I live maybe 8 feet above sea level, I don't like to take the chance.
