It has been almost a month since Ike hit Texas. Even in Texas we haven't heard much about it lately. The city of Galveston is still trying to recover from it. We just drove into Galveston from San Antonio for RE/MAX's Top 500 Retreat. We were shocked at what we saw but shouldn't have been. It is so different seeing it up close vs. on the news. Here are some of the shots I took today.
This is what you see while driving in on 45 to Galveston, Texas. There are boats littered all over the sides of the roads. We got here in just enough time to grab a bite to eat & head to our hotel room. There are just a handful of restaurants open. Most of the individuals in Galveston it seems walking around do some kind of trade or are volunteers. There are trucks everywhere you look with magnetic signs on them advertising their business. Carpenters, trash haulers, bulldozers, etc.
Small steps are being taken around Galveston to make it as it once was. It is odd to see where Ike didn't hit, parts of Galeveston are trashed & look beyond repair while others seem just as they were.
