Katrina Revisited

It had been awhile since I have been down to either work/help after the Katrina visit to the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Let me tell you folks... If you think things are better for most, you would be mistaken. It is the understatement of the century to say that Hurricane Katrina was the disaster of the modern era. Things are getting better down there but it is all relative. Casinos are back, but homes are not. The beach is back, but campers are present. I think you get the drift. The only 2 places that had rooms available in a number you could count on your fingers were the Palace Casino in Biloxi and Best Western in Slidell. Man, to see it again... to grow up in the area... it really tears you apart. Here a couple of pics taken with my cellphone to get the point across.
