Well, lessee, it is roughly 5:45 AM. Five years ago at this time we still had electric power - - for another 15 minutes. Katrina's winds started here from the east, but switched to more northerly soon. I won't give a blow by blow [pun intended], but let me say that by 9 or so I knew it was pretty serious here when I began to see our metal roofing fly by, along with attic ventilators. We are a little over an hour north of New Orleans at 150' elevation, so I did not fear flooding. I didn't anticipate flooding through the roof.
Our insurance company treated us fairly & we came out as good or better than pre-K. We had a lot of help from family & friends too, for which we are forever thankful. We were so much better off than many of my close friends in New Orleans who lost all they left behind.
Just remembering & giving thanks for what we have.
