This is what is left of one building that went out into the gulf after hurricane Ike hit Galveston on September 12-13, 2008. I have no idea, except to assume, that this truck was blown out into the structure during the winds of the storm.

In the story My Journey into the digital world.

Mother Nature's tantrums are legendary. She may have added a tornado to the hurricane. Excellent capture and entry.
