Hey Shelby Jean!

Barbie and Gayla dodged a bullet.

Barbie's son, Randy, stayed behind in their boarded-up house with no power. He used their generator, but it ran out of gas. Still, it could have been MUCH worse. Barbie is staying with friends in Dallas, and having a wonderful time.

Gayla, it turns out, never left after all. Here's a part of an e-mail I just got from her:

Quote:

My brother in law had an altercation on the highway while he was waiting in a traffic jam, all of the people trying to leave. There were several cars of people, cutting in traffic and acting like creeps, they were trying to make someone mad so they could get a fight started. My bil's truck was hit by one of them, when the traffic moved a little, he bumped into their van and moved them up. They unloaded and there were about 8 of them coming at him. He had his Smith and Wesson on the seat beside him .... when they got close to him, he showed it to them and told them what he would definitely do to them if they came any closer, they went back to their vehicle and he did not see them bother anyone else. He spent the rest of the time waiting for the traffic to move, walking around and checking on people offering them water, ......




I think they made the right decision to stay behind, don't you?!

I pray for the people of New Orleans.

Bevvy
