"My step daughter and neighbors are resolved that their homes will be a total loss....They're between the Lake and French Quarter."
Did they get out of there?
I guess that tomorrow night these pictures will be what New Orleans "used" to look like:

Yes they traveled in a caravan and are in Mississippi. Got a motel room for a week ....with three dogs and two cats....Says they got quite a bit in cars, but keep thinking of things they that are irreplaceable that they didn't pack.....Such is life....Thinks don't really matter...They are safe that's what is important.
