Deja Vu
It turned out to be easy to find another place to stay. The same place we stayed last year when we were in Austin - Crestview RV. It's primarily an RV sales and service location, but it has an RV park attached. We were here last year because we had some work that needed to be done on the motorhome. Anyway, they had plenty of space and we could reserve for a whole week. It's as good a place as any to be in a storm. It's on a hill and the trees are rather sparse. It's relatively inexpensive as well ($120 for the week) but take a look at what's right next door .... it may turn out to be an expensive stay!
Cabela's, in case you're not familiar, is an awesome outdoor equipment store. There's always something we need that they have.
Rita is now a category 5 hurricane, and it's still headed this way. The Texas gulf coast is under mandatory evacuation and many of them are coming here to Austin. I expect this park will fill up too. Austin is 150 miles inland. It's gonna get pretty stormy. I just can't believe that we traveled 1560 miles away from hurricane-prone South Florida only to face this monster storm on the other end.

Stay safe you guys. It looks like you are in for some strong winds and lots of rain....
And to think that because of the total disorganized Salvation Army here in Colorado--this is as far (close) to the devastation that I'll be getting to. Sure glad you found a safe(r) place to park. My prayers are with you!
