A row of geotubes line the beach in front of houses in Pirates Beach as heavy trucks clean up debris Friday, Oct. 3, 2008 in Galveston, Texas. The geotubes, used to help prevent beach erosion, had been covered by grassy sand dunes before Hurricane Ike struck last month. Like many other parts of the city, stretches of the beach were washed away, remain littered with debris and are not ready to host the southeast Texas crowds that usually flock to them.
