Chris Mayes tries unsuccessfully to use his Cingular cell phone in the Willow Creek area of Beaumont on Monday, Sept. 26. The country club neighborhood had far less damage since it is newer with much smaller trees. Other cell phone services remained operational or quickly erected temporary relay towers in Beaumont.

I appreciate everyone visiting while we're in recovery mode. The initial survivor/infrastructure phase is complete. Now, the human stories of financial ruin have started. Of course, if Hurricane Wilma takes an unexpected turn, the story will change again.
