I returned last night from Houston, Texas. The devastation can not be fully appreciated unless personally experienced.

Last Wednesday I had planned a relaxing 3 day vacation in the area, and instead, experienced the most awful event of my life. Not even the earthquake of 1964 prepared me for scale of the destruction. The unrelenting rain and almost hourly flash flood and tornado alerts were overwhelming . And while I was finally able to return to my safe, dry, warm home yesterday (airport reopened yesterday at noon), millions of decent, hard working Houstonians can't.

I witnessed the worst nature can throw at us, and I also witnessed, first hand, the best of human kindness, caring, and love!
