I"m so glad you're ok. Yet I feel so horrible for those who took a direct blow from the storm.

We got a horrible effect from Ike, too.. and we're soo far away.

Soo many of our streets got flooded, OUR main street was unpassable.
The worst part is, our community has only one entrance/exit, into River Road (along the Des Plaines River)... so they had to open up all the warehouses and we had to take some roads I never knew existed.

Finally yesterday one way down the main street was slowly passable, while the other half was waaay too deep for cars and small trucks to pass.

I didn't take any pics, but my brother-in-law did, so I will ask him for the pics and post them later on.
