What to say about New Orleans that hasn’t been said?

11:03 am on Friday, September 2, 2005

I don’t know what to say. Part of me says rebuild as it’s a hell of a town to visit and has some good memories for my wife and me. The practical side says don’t rebuild in a damn bowl below sealevel where hurricanes are likely. We were going to visit in December on our way to/from Orlando but now have changed plans. With gas prices as high as they are flying is actually cheaper than driving. Amazing. Also, without being able to stop for beignets there’s no reason to drive.

We’ve posted in a couple places that we’ve got room for a few folks/refugees from Louisiana but without a way to get online to find the postings it’s pretty futile.

Please check with your local churches. Here in Saginaw, TX several of our Churches have people that we are assisting. Also the city of Dallas is trying to find housing for all the refugees they have, thousands. You can call city hall and ask about operation Exodus.
