One Year After Ike

The Chronicle has been publishing a series of articles updating the condition of Galveston Bay one year after the devastation of Ike and a couple of them should be of particular interest to readers of this blog and lovers of oysters and shrimp, etc.

One deals more with the effects of the storm on the ecosystem.

Another deals more with the effects of the storm on the fishery's businesses.

I watched the video and read the article. Annihilated is the word that comes to mind when you watch the video. Nature is resilient though and Galveston Bay has been through this many times.
