Houston,.Friday, September 23, 4:30 pm

NEAL: Just got back from taking the dogs for another walk. It's still windy, hot, and cloudy, but the sun is still poking through the clouds. Temp is 93F according to KPRC-TV. Clouds are still drifting NE to SW. There are vehicles on the road, but fewer than a normal Friday afternoon.

Very few pedestrians ... none at all in the park ... just one neighbor, weeding flowers. But some things never change. The school-zone warning signal is still flashing away, and pickup-truck drivers are still throwing beer cans into the Watonga Blvd median.
