That is a good pic, Rich.

When will they get started rebuilding down there?

I could build at the beach!

...or will all the work crews be amigos?

...and it just dawned on me...DUH

Gosh Rich! I sure hope that wasn't YOUR facility in the picture!

That Island is trashed! Rebuilding has begun but there is so much distruction... There are still boats washed up to the freeway. Even all the shrubs have died do to the surge of all that salt water.

Gosh would I like to gather up a sailboat I could repair, Rich!

I can do fiberglass work...

I'd love to be a live aboard!

I saw pics just the other day from a fellow contracted to do FEMA inspections.
What a mess!

He says they are busy working on it all...

I went to the island thursday for work and the shrubs are dead from the salt water floods. The 50 plus year old oaks are in big trouble and might not be saved. I counted 33 boats still washed up to the highway. They just haven't had the time to get to them yet..


Place just trashed

I can't imagine how bad it was on the coast. I helped my dad out with getting the trees off the power lines from Tyler to Nacogdoches and saw plenty of destruction from the wind, even that far inland. The trees that blew over knocked out power lines as well as fell on houses. My sentiments go out to all those who were impacted.
