Above are the remains of Murdoch's at Mermaid Pier, after Ike swallowed Seawall Blvd and belched up the remains. The historic Balinese Room disappeared completely. So did the unhistoric Hooters I had grumbled about earlier.
No word yet on the condition of the other side of the island. The causeway remains closed, and it may be a week or more before people can come back and assess the damage to their homes and businesses.
Needless to say, our wedding trip may be very different than we had imagined.
Stay strong, Galveston. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you begin to recover.
