Power At Last, Power At Last, Lord Almighty, Power At Last

The title to this post probably let's you figure out where we are now. Last Saturday, we finally got word that electrical service had been restored to our house. So, on Sunday with children, grandchildren, great-grandmother, and Ollie (our Lab) in tow, we headed back to Lake Jackson after 2-1/2 weeks of living out of suitcases. Because of all the stuff we had and concerns about Janell's mom, Tara, our daughter-in-law volunteered to drive down with us. We had three vehicles in our little convoy. Anyway, we arrived safely and were very happy to be back in our house. Tara turned around and drove back to College Station, bless her heart. She and Sean just don't know how grateful we are for their hospitality.

For us, our Ike trek is over, and it's on to other things (after just a bit more cleanup, though).

Hope the clean up goes well!
