Roseland Oaks to FALLEN Oaks


this does not begin to describe the damage and fallen oak trees in the neighboorhood
i grew up in, Roseland Oaks.
above is a lost tree in front of my aunt's house...she had two feet of water
inside from the storm surge.

you can't grasp the amount of HUGE trees lost in these photos.

we were checking the status of my Nan's house....
it was ok besides trees on swing and on the power lines.


luckily everyone was fine....i am blown away by some of the devastation in Galveston, however
and would love to be able to help.
We will be calling a volunteer hotline tomorrow to see what we can do.
