How are you doing Andy? It is good to hear from you.


Doing fine. The house didn't suffer any significant wind damage but
the
first floor got an inch of water.


You are one of the fortunate ones . . . to a point. Aren't you glad
you and your father decided to leave, tho? Katrina was just too
serious to gamble about staying.

Yeah, amazing that I am 5 for 5.

1992 Andrew - stayed
1998 Georges - stayed
2002 Lili - stayed
2004 Ivan - stayed
2005 Katrina - evacuated

And my dad originally wanted to stay in New Orleans and work at the motel on
Tulane Ave that was flooded with 4 feet of water and looted when he and his
boss managed to get into Orleans Parish Sunday afternoon.

The motel is on the lower right hand corner. The courthouse is two blocks
away.

This was really too close for comfort for me and my neighbors in Metairie.
Just think if the eye wasn't 30 miles to the East of here.
