Hurricaine Katrina: 4 Year Later

I almost forgot that I was in Orlando at Disney World with my, then pregnant girlfriend, my son-to-be and two of his friends when Katrina touched down. Although we were clearly out of the storm's path, the weather was horrendous during our time there.

Now that I remember this actually happened 4 years ago, I'm taken back to the pure astonishment followed by anger that I felt as I watched sections of New Orleans literally being washed away, wondering to myself not why it was happening, but how --- to the extent that it did.

Countless volunteers and benefactors are making life better than it was during those surreal times. But life still isn't what it should be down there. Keep you head up, N.O. Your day is coming. Hopefully we'll be alive to see it...
