Ignorance

This is one of my favorite BLOGS to read : http://froggymonkey.blogspot.com/ The gal, Aimee, is a fellow scrapbooker who I met chatting online a couple years ago. Neat lady! Sadly, she and her family were caught in the nasty storms last year and thier homes and lives were torn apart and total devastation has ensued. Aimee IS one of the lucky few...with A LOT OF HARD WORK and DETERMINATION they have started to rebuild and get some sort of 'normalcy' back into thier lives. Her BLOG is very enlightening and sure brings out some much needed awareness... that is why I am inviting you to read it and take it in. So many of us are 'blinded' to the fact that there was much much more devastation to the coast than just to the New Orleans area. Aimee's area being one of them. So, take a few minutes, go to her BLOG, read what she has shared..... it is VERY interesting and very much information we need to know. Blessings to Aimee XOXOXO

I think the one thing about Hurricane Katrina that made me the angriest was the focus on the idiots in New Orleans. They were told to leave and didn't.
Waveland MS was a beautiful coastal town, along with Biloxi, Bay St. Louis, and other small towns in that area. The destruction of those cities has gone mostly unnoticed by the media. Waveland is a ghost town compared to what it was. Look at pictures of Nagasaki & Hiroshima and that's what Waveland looked like after Katrina.
Thanks for sharing her blog. I love her writing and share her sentiment. I hope recovery comes quickly for Waveland.
Off my soapbox too!
