Hurricane Blues

Hurricane update...

...we had to leave Houston earlier than planned this a.m. and drove for about 45 minutes in torrential rain and high winds...but then we got past it and the rest of the drive was fine, if a bit booring.

the drive to Austin from Houston is all cows and haybales.

And the "Ice Cream capital of the world." I wanted Steven (my co-worker) to stop, but he wasn't buying it.

**Highlight of the day**

I got new cowboy boots!! The perfect place to buy them is Texas right? And every good Southern girl needs a good pair...

I looove them and can't wait to wear them!!!

(I got them at Cavender's, they have several beautiful boots. http://www.cavenders.com)

Hurricane Party!

So

Hurricane Eduoard (They are really running out of "E" names...this one is so freaking hard to spell!) is going to hit Houston tomorrow around 1pm.

Guess where I am?

Yep. You smarty pants. I am typing this 10 minutes from the heart of downtown Houston.

I am travelling with our new sales guy, and we are scheduled to work a 1/2 day in houston and then drive northwest to Austin...

...yep, you guessed that too. The HURRICANE is predicted to move Northwest also.

So we will either be hot on its heels (and get to Austin around midnight) or be running from it all day.

Either way, tomorrow looks to be a great day for blog material. I will keep you *posted* (I'm so clever...)
