Man, I'm sure I've been refreshing my web pages, but I seem to have missed a comment on the blog from my good pal Joe Deshotel, who runs the pollabear.org blog. Seems he ventured down to the Port Arthur seawall earlier today and took some video of the winds and waves picking up.
It took me two or three times to watch it, but I think somewhere in there, there's a dude actually trying to fly a kite. You've gotta be kidding me. There's a freakin' hurricane on the way!
And, is that Angel San Juan out there, being the roving reporter? Way to go, Angel (if it's you), wish I could be out there.
This was the second of two videos Joe took as he drove around Beaumont Friday as the storm was approaching off yonder. Check this out, it looks like a ghost town!
Yikes. Not a soul there. Crockett Stree empty. Pearl Street empty.
Did you watch the video? I like the first person perspective...makes you feel like your right there in the truck with them.
Thanks Joe, and Pollabear.org.

Hey Mike,
Thanks for keeping us updated. Keep it up. I'm terrified what I'll come back to in Groves. Damn Hurricanes!!
