You like it?

873
00:38:20,100 --> 00:38:21,165
How old is she?

874
00:38:21,167 --> 00:38:22,331
She'll be 2 in October.

875
00:38:22,333 --> 00:38:24,898
- Oh, really?
- She's a cutie-pie, for sure.

876
00:38:24,900 --> 00:38:26,798
Say "thank you."

877
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:28,765
You know how to say it.

878
00:38:28,767 --> 00:38:32,531
- You like this boat?
- She likes boat rides.

879
00:38:32,533 --> 00:38:34,931
She likes boat rides.

880
00:38:34,933 --> 00:38:36,898
How long have you
lived down at the river?

881
00:38:36,900 --> 00:38:39,632
- Six months.
- You say you done with it?

882
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,199
A lot of people would love
to be right on a river like that.

883
00:38:53,433 --> 00:38:54,899
I hear you.

884
00:38:58,300 --> 00:39:00,065
Inman: We were able
to evacuate the folks

885
00:39:00,067 --> 00:39:01,831
who didn't want to be
on the river anymore.

886
00:39:01,833 --> 00:39:04,498
Got them to shore, and
they had family there

887
00:39:04,500 --> 00:39:07,098
that were gonna take
them and get them to safety.

888
00:39:07,100 --> 00:39:08,931
Thank you. Okay, great.

889
00:39:08,933 --> 00:39:10,831
- Thank you, buddy.
- Thank you very much.

890
00:39:10,833 --> 00:39:12,832
Absolutely. You bet.

891
00:39:15,367 --> 00:39:18,198
Narrator: Four days ago, Texas
game warden Dustin dockery

892
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,231
was heading out on patrol.

893
00:39:20,233 --> 00:39:21,698
- Bye, baby girl.
- Daddy.

894
00:39:21,700 --> 00:39:22,666
- Bye-bye.
- Tell him "bye."

895
00:39:22,668 --> 00:39:25,065
- Say "bye."
- Daddy!

896
00:39:25,067 --> 00:39:26,298
Today, he and his family

897
00:39:26,300 --> 00:39:29,065
are picking up the
pieces of their home.

898
00:39:29,067 --> 00:39:30,665
Dockery: I'm located
east of Houston.

899
00:39:30,667 --> 00:39:32,298
- How's it going, man?
- Okay.

900
00:39:32,300 --> 00:39:34,198
What we received up
here is the dirty side,

901
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,631
or what we'd call the east or
northeast side, of a hurricane.

902
00:39:37,633 --> 00:39:39,598
We didn't get the wind,
but we got the full effect

903
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,165
of hurricane Harvey.

904
00:39:41,167 --> 00:39:42,965
So after about two days of rain,

905
00:39:42,967 --> 00:39:45,598
we couldn't get
back into the house.

906
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:46,965
The water was actually
moving through here.

907
00:39:46,967 --> 00:39:48,898
It wasn't just stagnant
water that was standing.

908
00:39:48,900 --> 00:39:51,965
It was actually
some fluid water.

909
00:39:51,967 --> 00:39:53,498
This is actually the
water line where it crested,

910
00:39:53,500 --> 00:39:56,265
or where it stalled out at.

911
00:39:56,267 --> 00:39:58,331
When I first started
taking on water inside,

912
00:39:58,333 --> 00:40:00,398
we'd already had the
furniture up a couple blocks.

913
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,198
When it was about two-foot
deep, we grabbed all our paperwork.

914
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,331
I grabbed the bedroll,
grabbed the pillow,

915
00:40:05,333 --> 00:40:09,132
and went up to the fire
station, and just left it.

916
00:40:10,667 --> 00:40:12,765
Back here, you can
see how the water level

917
00:40:12,767 --> 00:40:15,131
was coming through, obviously,
how the fence is pushed.

918
00:40:15,133 --> 00:40:17,431
And the back part of the fence,
that's where the watershed

919
00:40:17,433 --> 00:40:20,131
was trying to get its
way to cedar bayou.

920
00:40:20,133 --> 00:40:22,431
You see a lot of stuff, and then
whenever it's your own house

921
00:40:22,433 --> 00:40:24,898
and your own neighborhood
you're having to work in,

922
00:40:24,900 --> 00:40:26,165
it's a pretty tough deal.

923
00:40:26,167 --> 00:40:28,331
But at the end of the day,
there's nothing I can do

924
00:40:28,333 --> 00:40:30,498
about my house with five
or six-foot of water in it.

925
00:40:30,500 --> 00:40:33,131
There was people that needed
out, people that needed help.

926
00:40:33,133 --> 00:40:35,865
So with all the people we've had
showing up, myself and my wife,

927
00:40:35,867 --> 00:40:38,265
we wanted to make sure
to keep track of everything.

928
00:40:38,267 --> 00:40:39,898
We've had a lot going
on and a lot of people

929
00:40:39,900 --> 00:40:41,465
that have offered their help

930
00:40:41,467 --> 00:40:43,865
and showed up and have
done any amount of work.

931
00:40:43,867 --> 00:40:45,765
Anybody that showed up
here and has grabbed a board

932
00:40:45,767 --> 00:40:48,431
or helped us dry something
out or helped us move something,

933
00:40:48,433 --> 00:40:50,865
we wanted to make sure
after it's all said and done

934
00:40:50,867 --> 00:40:52,865
we can remember
that. They'll be part of it.

935
00:40:52,867 --> 00:40:54,531
So inside our garage,
we made sure everybody

936
00:40:54,533 --> 00:40:56,798
that's been a part of
it has signed the wall.

937
00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:58,065
It's something that
we're gonna look back

938
00:40:58,067 --> 00:41:01,265
and be able to
thank these people,

939
00:41:01,267 --> 00:41:03,198
and they'll always
be in this house.
