KATRINA 18 months later in Gulfport, MS

WHILE WORKING IN SOUTH MS A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO WE DROVE DOWN TO GULFPORT. WITHOUT SEEING THE DEVASTATION YOURSELF YOU CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT IT IS LIKE. MILES AND MILES ALONG THE COAST THERE IS NOTHING, WHERE THERE USE TO BE BEAUTIFUL HOMES, THERE IS NOTHING 3 & 4 BLOCKS IN FROM THE SHORE. YOU SEE FOUNDATONS WITH FOR SALES SIGNS EMPTY LOTS WITH BROKEN TREES WITH FOR SALE SIGNS. JUST STILL NOTHING IS BEING REBUILT. EVEN THE BEACHES ARE DESERTED.

Winer in Mid MO

THE PIC OF ARTHUR CLEANING DRIVEWAY IS THE WEEKEND OF THE SNOWFALL,AFTER THE WEEKEND OF 2 DAYS OF CLOMPLETELY CLEANING ICE OFF DRIVEWAY. PRETTY PICS, PRETTY TO LOOK OUT, BUT NOT IN ITS 3RD WEEK WITH MORE TO COME, GETTING VERY TIRED OF LOOKING AT IT. WHEN IS IT SPRING?

ICE

Some of us are stuck in Missouri in the winter. We have Jason and Susan and Kai in Kansas City, we have Barbara and Arthur and Zack in Missouri and we have all of Bruces and Dads dogs in Columbia. We are all here stuck in our respective home because of ICE yes folks thats ICE. We have electricity and we have food and water (we won't starve yet) but wait..... where are Bruce and Dad and Leslie. why they are in Australia. And what time of year is it in Australia???? Well I'll tell you it is summer and in the summer it is sunny and hot and there is no ice. You can get out and walk and drive and go and see, but alas here in MO where everyone is suppose to leave we are not experiencing that. Ok, you there in OZ, post pictures, post messages, let us know what we are all truely missing. Of course we miss you all too.
