People are starting to freak over Gustav down here. We’ve already made our evacuation plans, should we need to get outta Dodge; I filled up the minivan with gas today (all but 2 pumps had run out of gas at the station I go to); my MIL says Wal-Mart is out of bottled water, etc.
I’m hoping we won’t have to evacuate. Normally we don’t have to because we live north of I-12 (that means New Orleans & everybody on the coast, Mandeville, most of Madisonville, but not us). Evacuating for Katrina was awful and that’s when everybody didn’t leave!
Just in case you’re wondering and you don’t live in this area, the levees “protecting” New Orleans aren’t ready, they’re still working on them. And as a reminder, I’m posting photos of the storm surge barriers from London, the Netherlands, Providence, Rhode Island, and New Orleans from johnmbarry.com
I’m praying Gustav fizzles out and no one is put in danger. Every time there is a storm in the Gulf we hope it doesn’t come near us, but that means someone else has to be affected by disaster. So go away Gustav, we got a 3-day weekend ahead of us and I’d like to spend it at home, not in a hotel watching the Weather Channel to see if we have a home to go back to.
