Hurricane Rita taught me about the ease of "bugging out". Ha. If you want to sit on the highway and let 'em catch you in your car.... stuck....

I would probably stay put. Between me, the hubster, our son, the constable across the street (of course he'd be at work, but work might be our neighborhood...) and a couple of guys nearby, we too have a "neighborhood patrol". Of course if there are 50 of them, and five or six of us, well, that's not great odds.
