News from Rita

My dad writes, after visiting my aged grandparents (and my cousin who lives there with them) in rural East Texas with his two younger brothers (pictured below) to repair their roof, and whatever else:

We returned on Tues. night. after four days there. There was a big oak tree on Rachels house, in addition to the one spearing the main house. Both roofs are repaired now. After the insurance settles up, there will be some work to do, hopfully by local people.

The storm blew billions of salt march mosquitoes into the piney woods. We noticed a lot of them there. Jeff was diganosed with West Nile Virus soon after returning to Austin. Phil may have a mild case also. I won't know for about 8 days if I've avoided it. Jeff is almost over it now.

Pictures below the fold.
