They haven't ordered mandatory evacuation yet. It's voluntary at this point but they are moving hospital patients and nursing homes, etc.

I have been on the phone with my sister 3 or 4 times worried that she is going to have to cancel her vacation. She assures me she won't.

In Jamaica, Gustav may have killed 11 people, and left millions in damage. Earlier this week, Gustav killed 59 people on Haiti, and 8 in the Dominican Republic.

prayers going out to the families of the dead, and to all the people wherever Gustav next makes landfall... in the Caymans, and in Cuba.

Just got up a bit ago and turned on the news. Seems a family of 6 was traveling into GA to escape the weather in Louisiana and crashed along I-20 (they think the driver fell asleep at the wheel) and killed everyone except one lady and one man. I cannot help but question how much are some expected to endure.... I wish I could wave a magic wand and make it all better. God bless those people in the path of this monster storm.

Just watching CNN, Anderson Cooper's talking to a reporter who's in the 9th ward, he says a levee is being topped by water, and that there's cracks in the bottom of it...water's seeping through the cracks. Water's up to stop signs in the 9th ward, he said. Police have fled the area......

Please pray for New Orleans.

Reports from my friend in Franklin, LA.

He says he has his boat ready and will probably be the first to float down mainstreet. I told him to get a picture. He's being funny of course in a bad situation. He has his little dog, his generator and his boat ready.

Prayers for him and all
