As the world watches Hurricane Harvey in relation to Houston, I can’t help but think of Victoria. I spent a Sunday morning there last October on my way back home from a fishing trip in Port O’Connor. The guys who took me on the trip have a ritual to stop at a certain café in downtown Victoria and enjoy a truly great breakfast before getting on with the long haul back to Edmond.
I loved the place. It’s a charming town. It’s a place where the people’s natural friendliness does not go unnoticed or unappreciated.
The café is the hub of the community. I hope it wasn’t totaled in the storm and they can get back to some sense of normalcy even though from what I’m seeing it’s very tough with more heavy rain headed their way and rivers beginning to crest.
Praying for Victoria and all the people in south Texas. This is stunning to watch.
