Houston, Texas

After Hurricane Ida and a couple of days in Baton Rouge with no power and increasing shortages, we decided to visit our son in Houston. Near his house is this lovely park, the Kickerillo-Mischer Preserve.

I just got word that electricity has been restored to our house! So many people are not that lucky. Prayers for all the people in Louisiana, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey and elsewhere who were impacted by Ida.

Ida certainly made an impact on us- thankfully not in our part of PA although we did hear of some flooding in the surrounding area. So glad to hear your electricity is back on and you are probably home by now since I've been out of the loop for about a week. Nice shot.

@olivetreeann Thanks! I was wondering if you had any effects from Ida. It was like a horror movie seeing on TV the water pouring into the New York subways.
