Jen, No, Mom's yard had a very large branch down in the back yard, but that's all. She has a few daylilies under one tree, and they were fine. No roof damage that we can tell. She just had a brand new roof put on last year.

We went thru this after Rita, but at the time the Canopy was brand new and could be repaired. It took awhile, but the garden was back eventually, and that is how it will be this time. It's just discouraging seeing things battered, and then stripped when it was so LUSH three weeks ago. However, with all the work the crew did now there shouldn't be as much to do in the Spring, that's for sure!

The shed hasn't been reseated yet, but plants had to be moved to even get to it, so it's one step at a time. It was hard to know where to start. It's coming together.

Our homes are structurally sound, and we are all fine, and that is what is important.
Our prayers go out to those that lost everything, and or family members. The death toll in Galveston keeps growing, and the number missing growing also.

Again, we have much to be thankful for!
