We were on the road by about 9:20 am. (I had to go to McNeese to shut down a few instruments and unplug them, in case of power surges when the electricity gets restored). It took us 10 hours to make the trip to Texarkana, which is usaully a 5 hour trip. The only problerm we had was with the van, a loose radiator hose clamp which we fixed and were bck on the road in a half hour. We took our van and Bridget's truck. I got to drive the truck...no air c.onditioning. So last night I ws fighting a bit of dehydration. This morning I'm mfeeling much better, but I need to go buy some potassium supplements...everythinbg was cramping up last night. So Valerie, Bridget and Briana and myslef plus both dogs are safe in Texarkana for however many days it takes before they let us go back.
