Still in Katy but we plan to return to Brazoria tomorrow, September 8.   My friend Phil assures me that roads are open, and he thinks water did not enter our house.   We hope that's true but we won't know until we get there tomorrow.  

I suppose the grass must be a foot tall by now.  It seems to grow an inch a day during hot humid summer days with an occasional showers (our friend Ellis calls them "sun showers.")

We all went out to dinner tonight at Red Robin to celebrate.  I ordered shrimp-and-slaw ... not the best choice ... more breading than shrimp.    But it was fun to celebrate with the family.

Robbie Rosco, our four-year-old Pembroke Welsh Corgi, has been a good boy throughout.  He chases squirrels and doves in the back yard and participates in barking matches with a white dog on the other side of the back fence (I've never actually seen that dog ... just flashes of white in the cracks between boards as it runs along the other side of the fence). 

Robbie always comes back in when called even if he's in the midst of a barking match.  Good boy Robbie!

My next report will be from Brazoria after we get back to our house.
