I've been kind of stressed the past 2 weeks. I live in the middle of hurricane country and was here for hurricane Katrina 3 years ago and our area is still recovering. The large piles of debris are gone now, but it's the empty lots where stuff used to be that serves as a constant reminder. So you can understand why this time of year can stress us out here on the Gulf Coast. We got the weak side of hurricane Gustav just over a week ago which hit just west of New Orleans. It was weak enough here that my friends and I went down to the beach to check out the storm surge which was just coming over the seawall and onto U.S. highway 90. We were seen by the police patrolling the area and sent on our way back home. A curfew was in place but the storm would not get much worse for us. We dodged another bullet with Ike (sorry Texas) and I am hoping that will be it for our hurricane season. Sigh.
Anyways, hurricanes suck, onto our next destination... does anyone notice that smell here? No its not the week old burrito I found yesterday, I took care of that. It's the odor of a new blog. Fresh. Clean. Full of endless possibilities. I woke up today looking forward to visiting this place. Let's see how long this love affair lasts!
I'm going to have to cut our time together today a little shorter than I wanted. I know, I know, I will miss you too. I promise you I will try to keep this blog smelling new and fresh, you do your part an
d leave your food and smokes at the door next time. Oh and wipe your feet! Cya!No crying.
