Warren,
No Ho sisters. I wouldn't know what to do with them.

Ron,
Yes, I saw that article. I have been watching it. I think the storm will be bad but not really for us in the DFW area. Sure we will get some of the winds and they are expecting a lot of rain here but not at hurricane wind speeds. I am just concerned that the 2.5 million people in Houston will be in serious trouble.

The shelters here are short on everything right now from Gustav evacuees. They do not have much of anything left to help people. They are saying they need 1,500 volunteers for this weekend and early next week. They do not have the food supply to feed that many people for a week.

I think if they all come to the DFW area it will be very rough here for a week or so for a lot of people.

Joe,
These are the new trees, right? if so make sure they are tri-tied. Meaning three ties. Also make sure the stakes are in the ground deep not just the four inch wire stakes. Those things are worthless.

We are getting everything ready for high wind and some rain but I think for the most part we are far enough inland to miss the worst of it.
