Hurricane Ike Images

I (Sarah) am safe, y'all. Kellen's safe, too, but he spent the whole of Hurricane Ike safely ensconsed in Switzerland. This post is mostly for Kellen's benefit, so he can see what things look like over here.
We still don't have any power. I am at a friends house, they're one of the lucky few households that have regained electricity. They were nice enough to let me use their internet, so I thought I'd use the opportunity to post some photos from the storm and aftermath. Once my power is up and running, I plan to write a nice full post about my experience. But for now, enjoy the photos.

See, here's me safe and sound, standing in front of the flooded bayou with Cara.


Paul and Cara's backyard, a little bit of their fence got broken, it shouldn't be too hard to fix.



Memorial Drive, under water.




A busted out building next door to Paul and Cara's house.

The glass in the street from the busted building.


The Texaco station by our house.


Our backyard.

A Shell Station hurt pretty badly by the storm.


Our front yard and driveway.

Hi, Sarah! Thanks for posting the pictures. I'm glad Paul and Cara have good friends like you to make these hard times easier! :-)
