Hello friends! This will be a brief post as it is a slightly hectic day. I know many of you who read this blog are also friends of Chiara and her family. I spoke with Chiara several times this morning. She and the fam are in the process of evacuating as the most recent storm projections have Ike striking land near their home.
They are on their way to Austin and possibly Amarillo. I'll keep y'all posted as we might have "hurrication" adventures to report from Amarillo. (Hurrication is a term coined by co-worker Jenny who had to evacuate New Orleans prior to Katrina. She refers to her evacuation time in Amarillo as "Hurrication". It seems as good as word as any for this particular set of circumstances) I'm sure the Yeates Clan would appreciate your thoughts and prayers these next few days.
UPDATE
I spoke with Chiara at 5 p.m. this afternoon. She and the fam have arrived in Austin. They are going to stay in a hotel there for the time being. They were on the way to dinner at Kenny's favorite restaurant - Denny's - trying to relax and keep life as calm as possible.

Yeates Family are in my thoughts and prayers, thanks for the updates!
If they end up in Amarillo, I know a couple of really neat people they can probably stay with!
Keep us posted, and Chiara if you read this, remember - no school, away from home, spells VACATION - so take a breath and relax, and enjoy the time with your family- Remember memories are in the making!
