Life After Ike

Dan and I both and both our families fared well through Ike. Only minor damage to our houses. However, neither of us have power at the moment so I am publishing this post from my kid's computer hooked up to a generator. I won't turn on my main photo processing computer until we have stable clean power back at the house.

Dan and I took a trip down to Surfside beach this afternoon to check out the folks that were really hit by this storm. Some major damage down there. Some of the houses look fairly good but others were either fallen over or missing all together. Sobering.





We spoke to many of the local residents and I was happy to see that the storm has not crushed their spirits. They are working hard to clean up their town and bring life back to as close to normal as they can.
