No damage to the house or to the lake house. Others on Lake Livingston not so lucky with trees on houses and destroyed boats/boathouses. Lots of trees down all across The Woodlands. Rumors that it may be 3-4 weeks before Entergy restores power.
Back at work today with power, water, and Internet. The Valero station at Clay and Gessner has power, gas, and short lines (10 minute wait).
We passed a literal mile long line for gas in Conroe yesterday.
Crystal Beach, where I went as a teenager to enjoy the beach, is basically wiped out (aerial before and after above).
My Dad had the one remaining tree in his yard hit the master bedroom of his new house, which was completed in November last year. He spent over two years in a trailer after Rita destroyed his old house. My sisters rent house she is in while building a new house had roof damage and big leaks.
Friends and family that are having trouble communicating can leave comments here to get news to each other.
God bless everyone and good luck recovering.
