I got to Houston last week and immediately found work related to the recovery/rebuilding of Houston/Galveston.

 

 

After working for a few days in Houston, I made it to Galveston, where I was hired on the spot to begin doing demo/clean up work.

 

 

Houston looks fairly clean/close to being normal, while Galveston is a complete disaster zone (there are still boats sitting on the side of the highway, etc).

 

 

I've been commuting from Houston to  Galveston for the past week, it takes an hour though so I've been trying, but to no avail, to find a place to live in Galv.
