Hurricane Ike hit 14 years ago. Here is a look back at the storm that changed Galveston forever
I remember Ike well. Ike destroyed Galveston and hit Houston hard. I was lucky in that I was only without power for 40 hours. I had law partners who did not have power restored for a month. They would take showers at the YMCA or health club and eat out. Galvestn was hit hard. These photos are hard to look at
