Yesterday evening Hurricane Harvey made landfall in Texas. It’s category 4 rating has been the largest to hit Texas since Hurricane Carla in 1961. As the day passes more and more pictures are coming out of the devastation left behind from Harvey. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved in the Hurricane.

Reports are that people in the area could be without power for 3-4 more days or even more in some areas. The rain and flooding are going to continue for the next couple of days and estimates are that the damage from Harvey could be over $40 billion. We hope our friends down south area able to recover quickly, and rebuild what they lost. Our thoughts are with everyone that was affected by the storm.
