Gustav Blows

Well, I watched my wife and my family drive off today as they evacuated before the rapidly approaching Hurricane Gustav. The only humor in the situation was the sign in the back of Jenny's car that said, "Honk if you are an Environmental Refugee." I have to stay behind for my job (I do scout work during storms). It feels strange to be here alone. I already miss my wife. I'm heading to Baton Rouge soon. Please pray for my wife and I. Tuesday is our first anniversary, and it appears we will be apart. My heart is heavy.
