Galveston was hit by a Hurricane last september and has already begun to rebuild, For spring break this year the town has seen many people visit. I stay about 50 miles from there in the city of Katy (Houston) Here is a few photos of what I saw as the results of Hurrican Ike. I saw hope and devastation, some business had already open for business others had been unable to do so. Galveston, the worst-hit city and the place where the massive storm's eye made landfall seems to be hopeful!!
The last two photos are not mine but are from news papers

I feel so bad that the residents of Galveston had to suffer through a disaster, I wouldn't wish this on anyone! Excellent images of a disaster!

Hurricanes are what keeps me from moving to areas like this... quite a gamble to live/ build there! Good series!

Well-done collection of photos of the aftermath of Hurricane Ike. Devastating event - but seems like people pick up and go on.

Unbelievable. I have friends in Houston & was surprised at how under-reported this devastation was by the media. Excellent set.

Thanks for sharing...so glad to see people are rebuilding. Not sure if I would rebuild or not. We did rebuild after a tornado, but I would think the reoccurance of a hurricane hitting again is posssible.
