Hiya everyone. First of all fantastic pictures. Oh I wish there was no need for them. I love New Orleans. I love and admire the people of New Orleans. I have never been so gripped with anger, shock, fear, sadness, as in the days following Katrina. I complain daily about my nursing job in a hospital, but had a slap of reality watching the abandoned staff of the hospitals doing anything and everything they could to make it, and do their jobs. I can not imagine what yall went through. I sometimes feel like the press used New Orleans for ratings, and now that there isnt people stuck on roof tops or wading through muck, the 9th ward isn't a "story" anymore. >>Clean up stories...yawn... are soooo boring... like the tsunami<<<
As someone not from New Orleans, I feel like pictures, like yours, should be pasted all over the place, ran on the news daily, to make people remember the tragedy, and be aware of all the work that needs to be done. Are there plans for revitalization of that area? What is going to happen?? I mean we are not talking about a couple of blocks of houses like after a tornado. (I live in an area hit by a tornado, so I can say that) That is a large area!!!
...Ok angela, turn off ramble mode... this *IS* your first post.
