On Thursday, Sept. 11 we were given the Mandatory Evacuation orders. Not really sure what to do or where to go we moved all of our belongings away from the windows of our 2nd story apartment, packed a suitcase, and started driving! We called a couple from our church as we were driving (when we realized that we really didn't have a destination) and they were wonderful to say that we could come stay where they were (about an hour north of where we live).

We had a ton of traffic trying to leave the Clear Lake area where we live - it took about 45 minutes to go what would normally take less than 5.
But then we got on another highway and it was completely empty! We wondered what kind of a sign that was that no one wanted to go where we were headed, but at least it didn't take long to go the rest of the way!
