I had hoped that I could say that Rita was no problem. For Laura & I, it really wasn’t. We got rain all weekend, but no damage. In fact, we kept power and cable all weekend, not even a flicker.

Unfortunately, Mississippi State University, my old home, wasn’t so lucky. A tornado spawned off by Tropical Depression Rita ripped through the campus and caused a pretty good bit of damage. Bad enough to cancel classes on Monday. I heard from some old friends that apparently alot of roofs are gone, and alot of trees are down.

At least nobody got hurt.
