. tim allman now tells us about one man who shared a rather unusual homecoming. sitting almost knee deep in rainwater, his house flooded, arik harding finds a moment's solace in the storm. a local musician and pastor, he returned to the neighbourhood of friendswood to fetch some of his childrens' belongings. to reassure his son that the family's piano still worked, he played a tune as a friend recorded the moment. later, arik would post the video online, admitting that what they used to have as the city is gone. but he was excited to see new beauty in the suffering. and as for the piano? i'm going to have to tune this one. elsewhere in houston, the sun shines, but many of the streets are still rivers. air boats making search and rescue trips nearly a week after the storm hit. this man is looking for his pet cat, left behind when he had to flee. and this story has a happy ending. the animal was found, alive and well. this is a surreal experience. this is something i have never been though my life. i lived through hurricane katrina, but it was not this bad. this is — my faith in humanity
