Exactly one year ago, Paul, Stretch, & I were evacuating this island-home of ours as Hurricane Ike approached Galveston. With both cars packed, filled only with the essential items from my newly edited "P&K's Hurricane Evacution List", and suitcases to accommodate just a long weekend --(I specifically remember telling Paul: 'We'll just be gone for a long weekend. We don't need to pack up everything like we did when we evacuted for Rita.' (!)-- we said goodbye to our boarded-up home and thus began our very own Evacution Escapades across Texas.
Two months later, after traveling from Ft. Worth, to San Antonio, to Houston-- we were finally able to move back home. The term "Home Sweet Home" now has a whole new meaning. We will forever be grateful for all of our family & friends who helped us out & let us stay a while!

Surely, a lot to be thankful for in one year! Hopefully this hurricane season will not be as eventful! ;-)
