Hurricane Katrina August 30, 2005
News from the front. We (Malia and Will) spoke with Travis, Jamie, and Reed ealier today (August 29th). They report that Katrina has been downgraded to a Tropical Depression, which leaves them with no power and a heck of a mess. Travis will post pictures once the Internet is back up.
Friends and Family,
We were surprized by the severity of this storm so far inland. It’s hard to imagine what it was like on the coast.
We came through without damage to the house or vehicles. We were without power for about 30 hours. Our power came back up quickly compared to much of the city. About 50% are still without electricity. Thankfully our Internet just came back up.
Approx 30 houses in our neighborhood have falling tree damage. The new big issue is gas. Lines are often 100 cars long.
We took a couple of pics and vids during and after the hurricane. See the Hurricane Album
Thanks for your prayers. Please keep praying for those less fortunate. Also pray for our cousin Jeff who broke both of his arms in a fall at work in Colorado.
Update 3:
Had a little trouble adding Hurricane Pics and Vids
