It is nice. My aunt lives in Gulfport MS. She got whacked by Katrina. She was very appreciative to have MRE and water. I was ready to have one of my trucks arrive to her house and load up what she wanted. Then proceed north. Fortunate for her, her house was not squashed or damaged. She stayed. Spent all night in the bathtub with her dogs as Katrina ripped the hell out of the coast. She really stayed because she is a nurse who makes house calls to those that can not get to the doctors. She was not going to leave her patients. She has a lot of spunk for a person who is 72. She still make house calls even today. 24/7. But, most only hear about the bad things in the news because this generates viewers and ratings. Ever notice there are 10 bad things to report to the 1 good thing to report? Sometimes I wonder if it is safe to leave the house after watching the news.
