I'm home!!!

Got home last night at about midnight. Chris wasn't expecting us until tomorrow and was surprised. We were driving (Mum and I) and it was 7:30 p.m. We saw a sign saying "Galveston 88 miles" and thought that it was silly to spend another night in a motel. Oh. You are asking yourself why did it take so long to go 88 miles? Well, we went down 87 to Sabine Pass, not realizing that the road no longer goes all the way through. They still haven't rebuilt it since Ike. So, we had to go back and retrace our steps. THEN we had to wait a good long while for the Ferry, since they only run one an hour so late in the evening and we had just missed one.

We are still waiting to hear word on where Mum's stuff is. The truck broke down somewhere and they missed the scheduled delivery date of Monday the 12th. Good thing we didn't rush.

The house looks beautiful. The mountains of boxes in the center of each room distract a bit, but we will get to them eventually. Anyway. Home safe and sound. I will write a bit about the journey later...

Love and miss you all."
