After attending church with the Mahars
on Sunday, we said our goodbyes and hit the road for one last
stretch. A few hours later we were driving through New
Orleans.
Everyone always wants to know if we saw much
destruction from the hurricane. There was definitely
traces visible from the highway: we saw vacant houses,
patched fences, lots of construction, and many "rebuilding
with pride" billboards as we drove through. The Best
Western we stayed at was in the process of remodeling.
But they've made a lot of progress since Katrina struck.
Our vacation was drawing to a close. It had been
a fun two weeks, but we were glad that there was only one
more day of touring left. |
