Recovery Effort in Galveston
by FOX News Crews
By Mayer Dubinsky, FNC Camerman
We spent the past two days on Galveston Island shooting video and live shots documenting the aftermath of Hurricane Ike. The road to recovery is well underway but there’s a long road ahead for the tough Texans who call the area home. Houston and many other towns inland are also heavily affected with many areas still in the dark and lots of clean up ahead.

When the story hits, FOX News is there. With bureaus across the world, there isn’t any news that gets by FOX News. 
Thanks for the video slide show. Many of the city’s services — including water, sewer and power — are recovering but remain several days away from returning to full function. The only hospital on the island is getting some power, but not enough to care for the 60,000 residents of Galveston Island.
Wonderful photos, UNBELIEVABLE!! thanks for sharing.
If there was news about the powerless freighter that had to ride out the storm, I missed it. Did they all survive? And what about the woman interviewed on FOX who was staying, she and her family. (I wondered if that included children.) Did they survive?
