Great Galveston Storm of 1900

Nathan and I both experienced a lot of stress this week watching hurricane Laura barrel towards our hometown. Luckily our hometown dodged the bullet (though Lake Charles and other places in Louisiana and east Texas weren't as lucky) which got me thinking about the largest natural disaster in our country's history: The Great Galveston Storm of 1900. 

Also, GHOST STORIES! 

To see pictures of the disaster of 1900, this is a really good gallery  https://allthatsinteresting.com/galveston-hurricane#1 

Also, Dash Beardsley lookin' like a Dash Beardsley:  https://ghosttoursofgalvestonisland.com/about/ 

Time stamp: about 12:30 I start talking about the details of the storm, and honestly it's kinda depressing (as catastrophes are), but starting around 28:45, I start talking about ghost stories which is a little more fun :D

Also, if you'd like to donate to those in need in Lake Charles and other areas impacted by hurricane Laura:  https://give.helpsalvationarmy.org/give/166081/#!/donation/checkout?utm_source=google_trg&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=disaster&utm_content=uss&utm_campaign=red_kettle_national&pid=cpc:red_kettle_national::google_trg:::::uss:disaster
