Thanks to Hurricane Ike, the nursery was put on hold last weekend. (Hopefully we--or I should really say "they" :) can finish it up this weekend.) Drew left Saturday morning for Houston to help with the Hurricane Recovery Teams with HEB. They basically went to help get the stores that were able, up and running again--somewhat. Since there are many people still in Houston, they need the basics. It was a long four days for him...doing manual labor that he's not used to doing. They had to throw out all the food that was spoiled and clean out the cases and then they helped restock the shelves when a shipment would arrive---at all hours of the night. They moved his team all over the Houston area. Being without power and water had taken a toll on many people and I think that he's really glad that he got to help those in need. I know it was a difficult job, and I'm so proud of him for doing it!! Here are a few pictures that he took--ice, charcoal, and gas were the things people wanted most...and there was little or none to sell. 


In addition, here is an article about his company that was on the front page of the Houston Chronicle:
