Texas beach cabin intact, moved half mile by Hurricane Ike

BEAUMONT, Texas—A neighbor found something that a Beaumont woman had been missing since Hurricane Ike swamped Bolivar Peninsula.

Her beach cabin — more than a half mile from its piers.

Cissie Owen was amazed to discover the small structure had been deposited intact, by the storm surge, in a field across a highway.

The interior had a water line of about 4 feet, with mud and muck throughout the structure.

A photo and a flyswatter were still on a wall.

Owen, who inspected her property Tuesday, told KFDM television that a neighbor located the cabin among debris left behind by the Sept. 13 hurricane.
