Has it really been 5 years??


This picture taken inside the eye wall just prior to Hurricane Katrina making land fall. I don't think this is a time that any of us will completely recover from and certainly will never forget. I pray we don't have to experience anything like it again in our life times.

Some things I cherish from those days: the strength of a small town, the love of friends/family/neighbors, and iced water tasting like the most amazing drink on the planet!

Goodbye Palms!


Just in case anyone thought the palms weren't dead here is the proof after 2 more weeks! YIKES! Lightening is harsh!


Here are the guys surveying the situation before getting started. Of course they only had about 3 - 5 feet to lay anything down in...


BIG Shredder out in front of the house!

GONE!!!! NOW we have some major work to do to make this landscape look like anything!! WOW!
