You guys would be pretty upset too if your whole life was weather and storm chasing and you missed the most intense part.

Damn, pretty depressed about the certain loss of, of all things, my reloading equipment, my Wolf primers that I can't get anymore, they are the best.

Not my home, my reloading stuff, odd first world problem I guess.

I suppose reality will kick in soon and I will adjust my priorities when I have no place to live.

Oh well glad I bugged the fuck out of there. Fingers crossed.

On September 9 and 10, 1921, the remnants of a hurricane moved over Williamson County, the county right north of Travis (Austin) for those not familiar with TX . The center of the storm became stationary over Thrall, dropping a storm total of 39.7 inches of rain in 36 hours.
Eighty-seven people drowned in and near Taylor, and HWY 93 in Williamson County. Thrall rainfall was 23.4 inches during 6 hours, 31.8 in. during 12 hours, and 36.4 in. during 18 hours.This storm caused the most deadly floods in Texas, with a total of 215 fatalities

Ended up in a real shitty motel in Fredericksburg via Alice, Freer, Laredo, Hondo, San Antonio.... LOL, all the motels were full.

$120 a night, the place has a tube tv, glad I brought a spare bed sheet.

Mods, I don't know how to put into words the stress of hurricanes.  It's like every form of humor we've ever experienced disappears from memory.  There is no such thing as thriving, only surviving.

At the very least let him back for now and give a temp ban later after the dust has settled and we account for all our members.
