We are back home ... yes, we still have a home!!!! The only damage we noticed so far is that the banana plants in the back yard took a beating and some boards are missing from the termite rotted fence between our yard and the neighbors (It took Sake all of 5 minutes to find her way into the neighbors yard by nosing a board to the side).
We left Pollock this evening at around 6pm, and made it here at 10:15! That is what a road trip should be like! A 5 minute heavy rain just south of Alexandria, a bit of traffic backing up right before Baton Rouge, a slight delay on the spillway due to the accident that always seems to be there, and the rest of the time was smooth sailing at 70mph.
There are a lot of people in our neighborhood already, and we have power and water! Our main motivation for returning home today is that I have an ultrasound scheduled with our specialist tomorrow afternoon at the 35 week mark. It's a relief to be back in the same city as my doctors in case of more complications, and we are looking forward to getting another look at baby tomorrow.
I'll post more about our time in Pollock soon.
