I hope that the powers that be down there can figure out what all went wrong and can take measures to prevent future occurrences. Feel extremely lucky that we here in Arkansas didn't suffer the same fate. Can't ever remember anything quite that bad. Sure I've been run out of my house (all electric) before, but nothing like as horrific as Texas has suffered and is still suffering.
Don had sent me a message asking that I pinch hit for him in posting the threads. He said that both he and Patty are well but their home was without power and did not expect it back soon. On Tuesday they were with their daughter and then had made hotel reservations. He did not expect to be playing in our contest this Saturday. I'm sure our thoughts are with them.
