Houston, we've got a problem
Ike slammed into the Texas Gulf coast and unfortunately there will be massive devastation. I can only hope that reports of too many people who failed to heed the warnings to evacuate are overstated. This was a monster storm and property can be replaced, lives can't.
As I did when Katrina devastated New Orleans and Mississippi several years ago, I will make a generous contribution in your name if you buy or sell a home in the Charleston area with me between now and the end of the year.
And I encourage everyone to dig deeply into your wallet and donate whatever you can to help those impacted by Ike along the Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast.
