Some Adventure's are not so fun

Well it turns out not all adventures are of the fun nature. This is Rena's apartment post Ike. The stuff on the floor was really slick and we are not sure what it was and did not really want to know.

The ceiling did come down in the kitchen and made some more mess, but it was hard to tell with all the other mess. We were able to save some of her stuff, but the furniture, i.e., sofa, bed, recliners, coffee table and end table had to go.

Here are her things laid out on the curb to be taken away :( It was quite sad. We did pick through the neighbors stuff and found better chairs than what we had and a really nice drop leaf table. Who knew I would be a curb diver (as opposed to a dumpster diver).

This is just one of many, many, many piles all over Galveston. It looked like this in front of every buisness and every home. I don't know how they will ever get it cleaned up. I was just glad I did not own the building Rena lived in with the way the mold was growing up the walls already and this has certainly cured me of EVER wanting a beach home.
But, the main thing is that Rena is okay and still has a job (since the ocean is still there). We will deal with everything else as it comes along. Hopefully the next blog will not be so messy. Ha ha.
