IKE

Hmmm...........what can i say about IKE..it was a completely new experience for me to experience 80mph winds. I was completely enjoying the wind, the rain, the lone time till the aftermath hit me. I lost power and water and then realized how addicted we have become to power. Without power i couldn't do anything, no cooking, no gas to drive around, no restaurants, no phone, no TV, no mac. It was a different experience then the hurricane. I survived without these for 2 days on bread but couldn't carry on. That is when i called time out and drove to Austin. So happy to see cooked food and very happy to get myself cleaned again.

After a week in Austin came back to Houston last sunday...glad to have power back. Though Houston has undergone a major transformation, this is when i realized what a hurricane can do to a city. Man kind is brave and always strive for survival, so i felt things will return back to normal soon, as i am already seeing the progress...
