Thanks for your support!!
ReplyDeleteIt makes sense to take a proactive approach to something that can save so many lives and property...
ReplyDeleteWe too, love NOLA. Keeping nature at bay is a very tough task. We worked in Pascagola after Katrina hit, drove thru Biloxi on down to Nawlins, lovely place and we have met some good folks who were displaced for a few years and are now back. Hoping that it will NEVER happen again.
ReplyDeleteSo yes, I hope the project can be done!!!
Thanks
I hope they are able to do this. They messed around with Mother Nature too much and screwed it all up!
