The Mayor of New Orleans has announced that people in selected areas of the city will probably be allowed back into the city. Luckily we are in one of those areas. If we do get in on Monday it will have been 23 days since we were last home. Even if we don't have full utilities, we will finally be able to access any damage and retrieve a few things. We have a friend across Lake Pontchatrain (who got full utilities back now) we can stay with if needed.
We have been staying with friends and family in Mobile, Daphne and Ft. Walton. We move every few days so we don't wear out our welcome at any one place. They have all been more than kind to shelter us. There really is no place like home though. And if we had any lingering thoughts about moving to Oregon they were washed away. We want to move more than ever now.
UPDATE: The latest info now shows that Uptown will not be allowed back in until Wednesday or Friday of next week. *sigh* Looks like it will be almost a full month that we will have been away from home.
