Spared by Hurricane Rita

An answer to prayer! We were spared by Hurricane Rita. First, she diminished in strength and then turned course. So, up in Dallas (and even down in Houston) there was virtually nothing. In Dallas, it was just slightly windy. My husband was driving in Louisianna though, and he said it's been raining for DAYS there...so we need to pray that the already flooded areas and stressed levees can get a break.
