We're still waiting to go back to Houston. Seems that power is still out across much of the city - including the water plant, so our house currently has no power and no water. Consequently, we're not planning on going home until that changes.
A friend stopped by our house to check it out - and it looks like we escaped without damage. We have some large limbs down - including one that will prevent us from using the driveway (until Mark breaks out his chainsaw, that is) - but none that fell on the roof. Also, part of the fence got disconnected - but looks like it's still hanging on (didn't get blown totally away). From his walkthrough (thanks Joe) that sounds like the extent of it for us. Sounds like many, many trees are down all over though.
So now we're just waiting for the power and water to be back and then we can go home! No idea how long that will take - could take a week, I hear. In the meantime, we have the news on almost 24/7, and we just keep waiting...
