The short - but eventful - life of Ike

The best photos I've seen so far of the storm and it's aftermath.

John, thanks. I was at 2016 Main today and planned to take Louisiana Street to I-10, but several blocks are still blocked off by HPD. I saw a large man lift in the distance. I guess they are replacing windows.

My heart goes out to the people directly affected by Ike. Such devistation. The photos speak a voume of words it reminds me of when I lived in Erie PA which was tornado country. Saw the power of nature there, not something I would want to go through again.
