Friends, Texas and Ike...

In a earlier post I reflected on our hurricane experience with Rita when we lived in Texas. My friend Marcy who was the one who took us in when we lost power sent me some pictures today of their house and their neighbors house after Ike came through.

First - This is Marcy and her beautiful family!

Everyone we know made it through the storm safely but I can't say the same for their houses. My old boss had a tree fall onto, or I guess into his house! Here are a few pictures from Marcy.

Ouch!

Double Ouch!
Their Neighbors swimming pool
This is the tree in their front yard - How lucky is this that it fell away from their house!
Instant swimming pool in the front yard from where the tree used to be.

Thanks for sending the photos Marcy!
