Trip to Crystal Beach and Galveston
My wife and I made a trip to the Crystal Beach and Galveston, Texas area last weekend. Galveston does not look too bad, but Roll Over Pass and Crystal Beach look really bad.
As we were driving along the beach road, there was nothing but empty lots where houses used to be. Pillars were sticking up out of the ground all along the beach front, evidence of where houses used to be. Its eerie, to say the least, to see entire communities whipped out overnight.
Watch the video over at youtube Complacency with disaster preparedness
Over at my survival boards blog - an article was posted about Galveston, Bridge City, Hurricane Ike and becoming complacent with disaster preparedness.
One of the impressions I got from my trip to the beach, its amazing how quick things can happen, and how wide spread the damage was. Not only were hundreds of homes destroyed along the beach, but thousands of homes were flooded up to 20 miles inland from the storm surge. The damage goes from Galveston, all the way to Southwest Louisiana. Its going to take years for the area to recover. Maybe even a decade or more for the emotional damage to heal.
Now comes the big question, how well are we prepared for a wide spread disaster? How would the world, or the USA react if a replay of 1348 happened? I'am going to be making a video and making a big blog post on recovering after a disaster.
