Rocked Freeport and Galveston. I live 60 miles inland and we felt it here. Downed fences and uprooted trees ect. Here are some photos i took.

Glad you are ok. I'm SO SO SO glad we moved out of there a couple months ago.

My friend who lives in Spring was finally able to call out tonight. No power still, lost about 1/4 of his roof, and a couple windows. Lots of water damage inside from the hole in the roof. But at least they are uninjured.

That's crazy. The most we get from the hurricanes here in Milwaukee is lots of rain. Plants love it.

The remains of Ike rolled through Western NY a few hours ago..
lots of wind! a few trees down, power out in places..but nothing major.

It kept me up from 1-2am this morning..watching the wind and worrying about trees coming down, but nothing much happened.

OH WOW! I'm glad you're alright! I saw those signs "Take a hike Ike" on the news the other day.

My sister-in-law and nieces live in Houston and a tree fell on their car and completely demolished it Other than that and being really scared, they're ok.
