Even More of Your Ike Photos

Houstonist will continue to feature more of your Ike photos for the rest of the week, as long as you keep 'em coming. Today's batch reveals sides of Hurricane Ike that we haven't seen yet, as more and more of you post your photos to our Flickr group.

The classic car with the "why?" on its window can be found in the Woodland Heights, and has had the tape on its window since someone vandalized the car, shattering the back window.

You have to love Google Ads - I'm seeing an ad for waterfront living. Not sure how effective that will be at the moment.

Thankfully, hurricanes happen during warm weather only - could you imagine facing this devastation during the dead of winter?

But this is better than facing a devasting earthquake in California

No, but seriously. That's awesomely wrong.
