Woot, made it through Ike and finally have my roadrunner back!!!! Still running on generators though but we are hopeful to get power soon (before we go broke buying gasoline).. We did fairy well only minor damage the the usual downed trees and limbs. Others here were not so lucky, my father, my son, and a friend lost everything, their homes were destroyed bythe rush of water up the Neches River. It is so sad to see... we helped my son remove all his destroyed furniture etc. There is a foot of foul smelling mud covering everything. I know many others are going throught the same if not worse situations and I pray for all of you!!

My heart aches for you and your family. I'll keep y'all in my prayers.

Would anyone know anything about Jamaica Beach? We stayed at this RV park and I'm curious as to how they fared.
My prayers go out to all that are affected by Ike.

I'd also like to ask about Orange. It's ironic, we stayed there during our Katrina evacuation and made some friends that we can't get in touch with.

Orange did not do well at all, the downtown area is devastated with the water from the storm surge. However, I do believe that most people survived and that is all that really matters!!

I am so sorry. This is the nightmare all who live along the gulf coast fear. May you find the strength to move on and pick up the pieces and begin again.

My heart just breaks for you. I'll pray that you & your family are given the strength and support to make it through this most difficult time.

I am so sorry. But I see where you are staying and we staying in Mt. Vernon with my grandparents. We have to go through Quitman to get there. I hope everything starts to get better for you soon. I am so sorry again.

No, Orange did not do well. I heard they were having to do water rescues there. Hopefully everyone was able to get out safely.

Yankeechick,

I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts.

yankeechick,

I am so sorry for your loss. What part of Galveston did you live in? We have numerous friends with houses on the west end past the seawall and they all think they have total loses. Another family friend had a 50 year old house in Gilcrest that had weathered everything for the past fifty years and near as they can tell from the pictures its completely gone.

Hang in there and if there is anything I can do for you given I'm still in the area, let me know, PM me for anything.

Charlie

Yeah...I think that was the same part that had already started flooding on Friday. As I was watching that I had a feeling since they already were flooding in that area....they might be gone with the storm.
