Unfortunately for Texas, Ike did NOT 'take a hike'. But tree services from all around the country, including Jacobsen Tree Experts based out of South Dakota, are there and in position to perform the first line of defense; that of removing downed trees and debris so that power can be restored as quickly as possible.
This picture was taken approximately 50 miles outside of Houston on 9/16/08 and consists of anxious crews and equipment who specialize in disaster clean up. Many crews have been sitting anxiously waiting to get to work since Hurricane Ike first hit, and if orginzation goes as planned, they should be clearing debris early tomorrow morning!
Pictured below is a tired Jon Tjaden of Jacobsen Tree Experts, who drove from Minnesota to the Houston suburbs, arriving Saturday 9/14/08.
