Wife and 2 Elderly parents, who moved to Houston so I could help them!

The parents and the neighbors across the street are moving into our house for the duration, since we have the Generator. I had to walk my dad through how to start the generator. Thank-goodness Gustav happened, since it put Margarita and I through the regular preparedness drill. Wife and dad need to get Gasoline for the Generator, in case power is knocked out for a few days.

We're in Northwest, so no flooding issues. I just feel I should be home putting the plywood on the windows, turning the house into the bunker...
