We are about 30 miles north of the Gulfport Mississippi coast and it seems from the news that it may not be as bad as the last hurricane. I do not think I could take the cleanup and repair if it was like the last hurricane. We have tied down and stored anything that could fly thru the air. It is impossible to cover all basis as we do have neighbors. I was wondering if Stogie had left his home since I am familar with Slidell, it is good to know he is safe. The house I lived while in Slidell had water over the roof top in the previous hurricane.
