Remembering Ike


We are still doing cleanup around our house after Ike came through. It was a bad time for everyone who lives in my area. We didn't have any electricity for 11 days, and that was not nice. But we did find that we could hang in there though. At least we had hot water, which a lot of people did not. My Dad did a BBQ just about every day, and that was OK. It was nice to see how everyone in Houston helped out. We ran out of food and found out that one of the churches were giving out food, ice and water, so we went and they were so nice. They gave us three bags of ice a case of water and lots of food. I think we will be better prepared next year.
