NOLA Revisited

As many of you know, Toby's Uncle Tate and Aunt Jen had to evacuate New Orleans last year. They are currently on a trek back to see old friends and old haunts on their way to a new life in Wyoming. Check out this web site from NOLA showing Katrina's path and exactly what happened when and where: http://www.nola.com/katrina/graphics/flashflood.swf

Even though we don't hear about New Orleans much in the news anymore, devastation is still overwhelming and ongoing. Hundreds of thousands of people are still homeless and without resources. My friend Heidi spent two weeks there recently helping with the cleanup effort. To see some pictures, go to: http://meewt.blogspot.com/2006/04/pics-from-st-bernard-parish.html
From there you can also read her blogs about her experience.
