Here is a sobering video of the Parish I live in. It's very graphic it almost makes me want to cry when I saw this video I guess it's the music that is played with it that made me emotional. But this is the closest photo's of the place I've seen since this horrible nightmare happened. The good part of all this is, with all this distruction only 120 people died in our community that's bad but it could have been over 1000 if we had not taken this thing seriously. Hugs all of you and Happy Holidays. http://southcypressspeedway.com/images/video/Katrina.wmv.
I'm regressing back into my youth, I just have to figure out how I'm going to convience my body to come along with me.

I found out today that where that video was taken was the street my Step Dad's neice lived on. She said the water, (storm surge), came up over her roof and from the pics of the cars the way they are it's no wonder it did. It will take years to come back to anything like it once was and then it won't be the same because most of the people I spoke to are not going back. That's what makes a community what is the people and a lot are not going back.
