Today I Received a long awaited call from the last Family Member refusing to leave the Houston area during Hurricane Ike's devastating presence. Surprisingly, like the rest of my Terribly Unwise Friends and Family choosing to stay, they were perfectly fine. Only mild Discomfort from the Electricity being out a few days and not trusting running water. Even then, they were given access to their fully powered office building.
The People I spoke to that refused to leave all said the same thing, "I didn't know it was going to be this bad." Talk about Adults needing a Spanking or Time-Out or Something. I guess I can say what I would have done in that Situation, but what it comes down to is actually having to make that decision.
Most of the People do Regret Remaining in the area. All except a Feisty Lady in her 80's who refused to leave her home and experienced Heavy Rain and a power outage for 24 hours.
For an estimated $20 billion worth of property damages, the People I know are extremely lucky or greatly protected. My Heart goes out to Them and to the Ones dealing with more Severe Challenges.
