One full week later and I still don't have power from Hurricane Ike. My zip code was one of 8 to have a mandatory evacuation and I stayed. I walked my dog in the eye of the hurricane, I am not kidding. The eye was so widespread that it was very calm and quiet. It lasted for 2 hours and then the "dirty side" came and blew my fence and trees away. Running everything on a loud-ass generator. They estimate it will be another week without power.


Get this. My parent's house is 3/4 of a mile from Galveston Bay. Their house was built right after the city passed an ordiance that you had to build your house 4 feet higher than previously. My parent's got an inch of water in their garage and not a drop of water in the house. Another 3 inches of water and the house would have flooded. Their next door neighbor's house is an older house and it was flooded 4 feet deep. My parent's yard looks like a jungle. Lost most of their trees. Nice big mature oak trees. One missed my dad's car by about 2 feet. Gotta get offline. Computer sucks up gas from the generator.

:( :( Sorry you are going through all that! Hurricanes suck and although I have not experienced the kind of damage personally, I have seen it around me living in Florida. Hope the recovery goes quickly for you all!
