Is anybody goin' to San Antone,

or Phoenix, Arizona?

So says the song. We're leaving for San Antonio tonight around 2am. Even if Rita hits Port O'Connor (look it up if you don't have every bitty town in Texas memorized . . . what, you don't have every bitty town in Texas memorized?!) we're going to be experiencing 100+ mph winds in our neck of the woods. That's enough to put us at risk for some severe discomfort, especially if our ash tree falls on our house. The power is most certainly to be out Friday through . . . well, who knows. No power means no air conditioner, not to mention no fridge. Both are pretty indespensable lately, so we're packing up some diapers and toys and visiting Nana's.

A direct hit is still possible, as well.

Of course we're taking the Wi-Fi router to my parents' house, so we'll be online over the weekend. San Antonio will receive some stormy weather courtesy of Rita, but nothing worse than a typical stormy weekend, and nothing worth shutting the city down, so we'll be just fine.
