I reported on Coast Guard rescue operations. They were airlifting stranded residents out of Bolivar before the hurricane hit. There was even a dog named Sugar that hitched a ride on one of the helicopters. Then, it was on to Nassau Bay to cover storm damage which included massive flooding. Some of the boats housed in the bay ended up in the surrounding neighborhoods. During the post-hurricane coverage, I did stories on tree trimmers, Centerpoint crews, fence companies, Downtown damage, shelters, and my favorite - traffic. I am sure there was more, but that is all I can remember. Overall, it was an experience I won't soon forget and one I hope none of us will have to repeat anytime soon. There were so many people who lost so much. We can only wish them the best while rebuilding their lives. You always hear about people helping people but I got to see it first hand. Our community was in need and our neighbors stepped up to the plate. For some, the work goes on and will for some time. As for me, I was very proud to be a part of the effort helping our friends in need. Now it's time to get back to something just for the fun of it. Fantasy Football. |
