I went to visit my parents in Houston last week, and ended up caught in Hurricane Ike. Ike roared in on September 13-14, and I was to head home on Sunday the 15th. Needless to say I stayed a few extra days with no power, and no planes leaving. This picture is what a lot of the area looked like after the storm. All the family are well, with no damage to life, limb or homes to speak of and the power came back on right after I left. Well, had I known I would have left earlier. Here are pictures of Grandma and Grandpa- powerless!
