Three hours west of New Orleans...
...we lost power for a day.
...a limb came off the pecan tree.
...I contemplated how best to kill a crazy old woman and a frenetic 6 year old.
Today: business as usual.
From what I hear: Slidell -- a town north of N.O. where I lived for a chunk of time -- was hit hard (10 feet of water in some areas)...Slidell was beaten down badly by Katrina, so, I'm guessin' lots of folks (who stayed and rebuilt) there are less than fully gruntled today. Also: Plaquemines parish got it bad.
