Escape from the Former Big Easy
Hello, I'm OK. Therese, Kalypso, Gilgamesh, me and the dogs are all in Omaha. Give me 24 hours and I promise to post an abbreviated version of my story. I'm touched by all the comments on the previous post. Thanks--Michael
Never heard of you until someone on another blog mentioned you, since then I've been worried too. Funny how blogs connect us. Thank goodness you're safe. It's painful to think of all those who never had a chance to make a blog and who didn't make it, your good news really helps.
Dr. Homan. I am so glad to hear you've made it. You always used to joke with Gstohl about being a red neck....he left and you stayed to man the fort....whose the red neck now? lol. We're lifting everybody up in prayer that you'll be able to get back on your feet quickly.
Dear Mike, It is so wonderful to hear that you and your family are safe in Omaha. All your friends in Israel will breathe a deep sigh of relief. I hope and pray that Roy is safe as well. Do let us know.

Mike, it's your cousin, Bob. Good to hear that you're okay. We should get together and catch up once I move to Omaha in a few weeks.
