Hurrican Ike

Since Hurricane Ike hit I have been on the computer and on the TV (I love Direct TV) tracking and watching the aftermath of Ike. No, I am not crazy. After first being blessed that we moved from there a few short months ago, my dear friend Dawn is done there experiencing it first hand. Her hubby is out of the country for work and she is be the brave woman and taking care of her 3 kiddos. We/she live about 35 miles north of Houston. Most of the big storms that come to Galeveston we get a tiny aftermath. But Ike was different. I am just floored by the damage that hit not only Galevston but the area around my old home. Since they have no power and sparsly working phone lines I have been texting her and keeping her up todate on whats going on. Hopefully I am also giving her some moral support to keep her going until her husband arrives home today. I have been worried about all my friends that are still down there. So far they have all come out without much damage to themselves or their homes. For all you down there I miss you and our prayers have been with you and I hope you get the power on soon. I know you miss the Airconditioning!!
