Let's get everyone accounted for! Let us know how you are doing.

I feel very fortunate. We lost a lot of trees; one hit our house but no obvious damage. I heard from Entergy that we would be 3 weeks without power, so on Monday I drove my wife, daughter and mother to Austin to stay with my brother's family until things normalize. I returned home Tuesday with a generator and 30 gallons of gasoline and went to the clinic today. Things aren't back to normal yet but we have it much better than many of our neighbors. A friend of mine lost his entire house on Crystal beach. Check out these pics.

Today was the first day they let us back in to work. I had to drive over so much glass I was worried I had a flat. I snapped some quick pics of my parking garage (pic #1) and my office. Hope everyone is safe

This cool weather is definitely a blessing

West side of town (Katy) was blessfully spared the worst. There are a lot of fences down and a fair few trees, but I think everyone is relieved at how lucky we were this side of town. Power was on at out house Sunday afternoon, feel very fortunate for that also.

Back to work since Tuesday (most made it Monday), the wait is still on though for the schools...

 

We are all ok on the NW side of town. Had some minor fence and roof damage that I fixed myself. We had electricity pretty much through the whole thing (we were very lucky) with the storm knocking us offline from 12:00 am to 5:00 am the night of the storm. We've pretty much been back online since that time. I guess it helps being next to and on the same electricity grid as National Oilwell Varco........

So far so good, still no power but we have water and gas. Yes the weather is a blessing. I'm in Bellaire, hopefully we'll have power soon till then I will keep doing the generator thing. I use the big generator during the daytime and switcjh over to my smaller Honda at night, as it's quiet and very fuel efficient.

 

I'm at work actually right now with internet. We still do not have cable at the house, but we have power thankfully. I do not know when we will be getting internet back.... I hate Comcast sometimes...

 

The Woodlands is finally up!!!

Trees down in Sugarland and roof damage but otherwise fine. I only lost power for a day. Overall I am very fortunate.

 

Had power Sunday afternoon,we had a few tree limbs nothing to serious, thank god for generators. My next house will have a propane generator that will be hard wired, that way we can run A/C.Hope everybody is doing ok.

 

We lucked out. Power was back on in Cypress by 3pm the next day. We had one little oak tree fall but I pushed it back up myself. We feel very fortunate. Many of my employees still have no power. I was really looking forward to going to the track this weekend but it was the right thing to do to cancel. Please keep us posted Peter.

 

Live in Pasadena, so the eye went right over our street. We lost 3/4 of our fences, part of a gutter, and tree limbs. Went back into work Tuesday, got power back Wednesday. Wife's employer is flooded out, so she won't go in until at least next Monday, kids will be out of school until next Thursday.

Porsche related.........since Arabelle had a full tank of gas, I spent part of Friday as the hurricane was bearing down feverously trying to install the new ecu

Mission accomplished.....not even a hurricane can outrun a Porsche Turbo

Ordered a set of diverter valves from Vivid too.....

 

Sounds like everyone is doing ok. Glad to hear it.
