Our firm's largest office (with over 150 lawyers) is in Houston, and we received word today that their building suffered severe damage from Ike, and will likely remain closed for most of the coming week. Thank goodness Ike drifted East of the DFW Metroplex.All we got here was gentle, persistent rain yesterday, and today is sunny. I might even take a quick nap in the pool later on.
We go to see the Eagles this evening. Julia is taking Caitlin and Taryn along as well, so it should be fun, but it is going to be a long drive home this evening, as I don't imagine we'll be home much before midnight!
Betsy has emailed with an update from her area of Houston. Her house suffered minor damage (broken fence . . . downed tree limbs) but her parents' house is reported to be nearly a total loss (more on that when she can get down there to see for herself). Luckily, her parents had moved into an assisted living facility over the summer, so they were not there for Ike.
