    Thanks for checking in D and HB, so glad you are both okay! I just read there have been 1,500 to 2,000 incidents of high water rescues and Hobby and Bush airports are having big problems with standing water on runways. They are asking residents where ever they are to stay put not to take any chances because of fears about flooding, sink holes, etc. I'm trying to reach my friend in Spring she said last night she was going to try to get to San Antonio. Stay safe and keep us posted!

    I know Delilah, it is bad. Glad to hear y'all are safe. My exact location is Jersey Village and unfortunately we had flooding during the Memorial Day floods and also the tax day floods. So far this time the bayou that runs thru JV is staying within its banks. I am so thankful for that. However as you know it is still raining.
    I would also like to thank everyone. Your prayers and well wishes are much appreciated.
    Keep them coming as it appears this will be going on for awhile.

    I have many relatives in Houston. My best friend, her family and parents also live in Houston. Her mother posted on Facebook that they were ok. I haven't heard from my best friend, but I guess her mother was posting for everyone.

    Dawn. I have a friend in Spring too. I saw her facebook post and she's ok also.

    Its weird that I was just in Houston this past January and its now underwater.

    I'm glad everybody is ok.

    Brothers for life. RIP Glenn

    I'm not sure I believe in fate, but I know that crossing paths with Glenn Lewis Frey in 1970 changed my life forever, and it eventually had an impact on the lives of millions of other people all over the planet. It will be very strange going forward in a world without him in it. But, I will be grateful, every day, that he was in my life. Rest in peace, my brother. You did what you set out to do, and then some." -Don Henley

    I'm glad to hear that the Texans on this Border are okay so far. I hope y'all get through the heavy rains, and I hope that your well being, friends, relatives, and pets are safe.

    So glad to hear that all Borderers and families/friends are doing ok with Harvey rushing through. I will continue to keep everyone in my prayers. I am in north east Texas (50 miles east of Dallas) so all we have gotten so far is cooler weather. Stay safe everyone!

    Prayers for everyone in the wake of HH! Thank goodness HB and Delilah and Soda's parents are safe! It all sounds horrific!

    Has anyone heard from East Texas Girl?
