Houston- We Have a Problem

It's thunderstorms but still about 90 degrees in the plane. We're stranded on the runway 'until this passes '. 

First time to Houston.   Hmmm.

I guess we are an hour and a half delayed so far. No word yet but the latest photo shows clearing in the distance.



Summer Harvest

Enjoying the garden and the kids.  Hard to believe its July but the garden doesn't lie. Moira and Christian enjoying their last summer pre-college. Patrick turns 16 in 2 weeks








Houston to des moines

Train departing...
Then.....eeerrrrrt.  Thunderstorms close airport.  Stuck on the runway.




Destination: Clear Lake, Iowa

We are at SFO waiting for Kathy. Turns out we all got the same flight Houston to Des Moines. Sarah does LAX to Houston too.  Then we all head into Des Moines.  We rented a large car. Hope it seats six.  :-)
