RE: Hurricane Katrina - My Personal Experience
❤️
New Orleans is one of the most uniquely beautiful cities in the country. I am so glad you made it out and were relatively unscathed all those years ago. So scary how living conditions in a place can change so quickly. My cousin and his family live in Florida and last year they evacuated for whatever hurricane had come their way. Them, two little kids, all the pets. Their house made it through ok in the end but again similar situation. People weren’t evacuating. By the time they left they were basically the last people able to go because of traffic and no gas. No hotels. We were sooooo relieved when they finally made it to North Carolina.
Thank you for sharing your experience during Katrina. Thank you to @firecajun9262 for being away from all of you to take care of the rest of the city during the aftermath.

I feel the same about New Orleans @dfinney and was heartbroken seeing the death and destruction. Seeing that big spiral on the tv heading for the Carolinas brought back all those memories. Some parts of the city have never recovered.
I'm glad your cousin was able to get the family out, I think a better system should be put in place to avoid the traffic situation but I guess that means nothing if everyone waits till the last minute.
Thank you so much my friend! ❤
