I will never forget watching the satellite images of Katrina as it approached the coast. My final thought was, run! But it was too late for the many unable or unwilling at that point. Also stuck in my head is the image of the Fox news team reporting from the French Quarter the next morning that New Orleans had, "dodged the bullet" as the water poured through the levees. No one seemed to know, yet.

If I had lots of food and water, a generator, a solid house and was on HIGHER GROUND, I'd probably ride it out. Otherwise I'd be taking a holiday inland. God Bless.
