We moved from the coast last year about 40 miles inland and outside of all evacuation zones. We just got tired of playing the game. Stay safe out there.

Over here in the Lake Charles area we're watching it pretty close. Rita kicked our butts, it took over a year to recover. We'll load up and head out but I sure hope this thing dies or at least drops to a Cat 1 before land fall

I don't live in that area, but I work there. Fortunately I am at home in Alabama for this one. I know many peple all around South Louisiana. I am keeping all of them, including you in my prayers that it will turn and go elsewhere. Stay Safe

I already have made an offer to some old friends to come stay at my place. They were here several weeks after Katrina and their mail from FEMA was being delivered to my house for many months after they left.

We had a good time then (in spite of the unfortunate circumstances) and if and when they show up, we'll have some more good times.

Hurricanes are mean; don't mess with em' if you don't have to.

I am going to ride it out on my boat in the Mississippi river below Belle Chasse. Good Clean Fun. I ride all of them on the boat.
