Hurricane Katrina
Phew - glad it wasn’t the worst case scenario for New Orleanians. I was living there when Hurricane Andrew hit and it was no picnic.
I huddled for hours in the dark under a desk I had crammed into a doorway next to loadbearing walls. At one point, a metal trash can hit the window. That’s bad enough, but it’s downright scary when you live on the second floor.
Hopefully the bon temps with start roulering soon for the folks down there.
