We've made it to Houston. Bill thought I got us lost when we got off the freeway, but I was right! If he had just kept going we would have gone straight to the hotel with no problem. Our little studio is set up nicely except for the kitchen. The cabinets are all waaay up high. I did not bring my stepstool, so Bill will have to do some kitchen duty to get the dishes down, especiall if he wants me to cook!

We still have to find a grocery store to get some supplies. There's a shuttle in the morning that will get us to the hospital. St. Luke's is across from the MD Anderson Cancer Center and we can see it from the hotel. The entire medical center area is HUGE.

There are lots and lots of cranes in the area. Whether this is new construction, or still repairs from Hurricane Ike is unknown. I was impressed with what I saw coming in. Of course the route we took is different from where we were before, but there was no left over destruction. There also weren't a lot of bare areas from tree loss. I told Bill I would like to go back to the area we were in to see the Chase Building. We saw it before the storm when it was sandbagged, we saw it after with all of the windows blown out and I would like to see it now to see if the area has recovered.
