Bobby Taylor uses a kayak to evacuate as his neighborhood was overtaken by water in Surfside Beach, Texas, Friday, Sept. 12, 2008. Taylor had planned to remain at his home despite Hurricane Ike, but later changed his mind. The massive hurricane sent waves crashing over a seawall and tossed a disabled freighter in rough water as it steamed toward Texas Friday, threatening to devastate coastal towns and batter Houston.
