So here comes Hurricane Ike. We're worried. Very worried.
Ben's sister and brother-in-law are stuck almost right in the hot zone of this storm. The projected path has the storm hitting less than 20 miles from their home. They're inland enough to not have to worry as much about flooding, but the winds will be bad.
They sent their two kids with Ben's parents in their car to Baton Rouge. Now they're stuck, and with no mandatory evacs in their town, there are no buses or anything to get them out.
Please, send your thoughts their way and ours. We're hoping to hear from them again tonight, but as the storm is falling this evening we may not hear from them until Sunday.
Here's hoping this isn't another Katrina.
