The Hurricane is Coming

If you have been watching the news you know that Hurricane Felix has made landfall and in the process changed it's course. It was planned to really affect the North Coast of Honduras and so all night last night they were landing planes at the airport to evacuate people of the norther reagion. The only problem with that is, the hurricane turned and now is making a direct shot at Tegucigalpa. We are starting to feel the winds of the outer bands and it has made us nervous. Rosa lives in a dangerous area for landslides so we have offered to let her and her family stay with us for a day or so until the rains and wind subside. We don't know if she will take us up on our offer as she has to talk to her husband first, but we hope she will that way we won't worry about her.

There is no gas anywhere in Tegucigalpa. Thankfully we filled one of our trucks yesterday. The big green monster is over half full so that should be good for a while. We have cancelled all services until the worst is over.

Please pray for us that we would have safety. The Hurricane may still turn, but it is unlikely. You can keep track of Hurricane Felix by going to www.weather.com. The Hurricane is the main story. The eye is expected to pass sometime early tomorrow morning.

If we have electricity tomorrow I will update my blog so you will know how we are doing.

Also pray for Joey. He is sick with vomiting. Just what we needed at this time. :-)
