We survived Hurricane Ike!
All the people are fine, the dog is fine. The house is fine. The shed and the fence, not so much. Our shed blew away during the storm (ripping two bolts out of the ground, and leaving parts of the shed attached to the other two). The shed knocked down the fence on its way out, including a small tree behind the fence, and an old fence just behind that. All the yard equipment, baby stroller and crib, bicycles, and other miscellaneous items that were stored in the shed somehow stayed put on the ground, and hopefully the water damage to that stuff won't be too bad. We lost power for about a day and a half.
