Since St. John’s and Bethany were both closed on Sunday, I biked around to find a church with which to worship. Luckily, the first one I went to, Trinity Episcopal, was open, and I saw Andrea Shank (who sings in their choir) and Eileen O’Brien (who is back in town working for a group developing after-school programs for kids). Biked around a bit, then vegged before poker, which started early and had a bigger crowd than normal.
Monday got called in to do damage assessment for the Red Cross. They had more cars than volunteers, so I recruited Anne Curran and explained our job as we drove to our assigned area, NW Montgomery County (West of I-45, north of 105). A large area, but not hit hard; we drove around all day, and only saw three dwellings that had been affected, all minor, but no power in many places. Did see a tree over a road suspended by power lines:
During the day, David came by and got the generator and took it to Beaumont, where he snapped these pics with his phone:
Weiss Park, across the street from our store.
Our friend John’s house.
The Rasnick’s old house
The house across the street from ours.
Will be taking care of clients today, and doing the rescheduled dress rehearsals for Jekyll & Hyde tonight and tomorrow, with a shortened run this weekend. Then may be going east for more damage assessment.
