mermaid pier - gone

mermaid pier, originally uploaded by sarah pants.

Ike has roared across Texas and left a huge trail of destruction. Some of you might know Sarah- Gypsy Mermaid. I'm afraid she has lost her home to Ike. She lives in Orange , Texas, right on the water. According to her blog, they think her home is destroyed! She and her husband are safe and are with family, but this is so awful!
And poor Galveston, Kemah and all the areas hit by this massive storm. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you!
And my beloved Mermaid Pier is gone.
And the Balinese Room.
And the pier where we took the boys fishing.
So sad...
