Tuesday

Ok, so these posts are all going to be posted on the same day. We didn't have internet access the whole time we were down here, but we kept something of a written diary, so we are going to update them all now. We are waiting in the New Orleans airport for our flight, and we have internet access NOW.. go figure..


Tuesday
What a whirl wind adventure we are having!! Visited some of the absolutely wonderful people in Ocean Springs.. We didn’t realize how much we were longing for the area until we came into town and had a feeling of being "home".
We drove my old route. What an uplifting experience to see the progress that has been made in most of the area. Yes, there is a long ways to go, but the amount of rebuilding and remodeling that has been done was surprising to us. We got to see Herb and Lois and Annabelle. Their gardens will take your breath away. And Hal, their wacky neighbor that I adore, came over for a visit. It was so great to see him again, he always made me laugh when I came down the street with his antics. Usually he was hanging from a tree and making fun of women drivers..
I got to visit the Delgado’s. They were so shocked to see us knocking on their door, we loved to see the faces of people as they realized that when we said we would be back, we MEANT IT! We are true to our word!
One of the couple’s that we dropped in on were busy remodeling their house. They weren’t using their FEMA trailer this week b
We got to meet up with a wonderful couple, Herb and Lois. They took us out for a great dinner at Aunt Jenny’s Catfish house. I couldn’t decide between the catfish or the shrimp, so I had both, and enjoyed every single bite of it!!
