Hurricane Ike - Houston, TX


Hi Everyone,

How are you this week? If you had a bad week, be thankful that you are not going through Hurricane Ike.

I have been keeping in touch with my brother Keith in Houston, and he and his family had to evacuate the city and move to safety. All weekend, I was really worried about him and his family. He had to drive to my auntie Rosie to Killeen, Texas until Hurricane Ike is dead. I thought it was crazy that he actually had to go back home the same day Hurricane hit, but his reasons that he needs to check on his home, to make sure no people rob, damage, or take an advantage of it for that matter.

There are a lot of people that are fighting at the gas stations over gas and ice. Some homes that are damaged and places are flooded. It's bad but not bad as Guam. However, considering that there are 5 Million people + , let's be thankful that wasn't us. Although, Guam is naturally a typhoon area. But let's just be thankful anyways.

I feel sorry for the main land. They keep getting hit by more and more hurricanes. Gas prices are going to go up again.
