We survived Ike!

Well hurricane Ike came through on Friday night. Our area is looking pretty good, just lots of downed trees and fences, roof damage, and power outages. We are very lucky to have power right now. We cleaned up the yard and will be dealing with insurance and contractors now. Lots of people are still without power and the people on the islands will have it rough for quite a while. Things get very unsanitary, very quickly without electricity or water. All the basic necessities are in short supply around here but everyone is happy to have survived.
