The cooler weather has been amazing and just in time. I remember right after Alicia, it was so hot and the wind wouldn’t stir an ounce. It was so miserable. We were lucky and had power all through Alicia until it was over then we lost power..... and any breeze. I can’t believe I attended 12 years of school in southern Louisiana with no a/c. How did I do that? LOL

To see what is really going on, pictures from a local Surfside firefighter. Not just the most ravaged areas, but the entire area which seems more appropriate to me. To show the worst pictures over and over is nonsense. To play on the negatives 24/7 is just a media trick to make everyone stay stuck on death and destruction. It increases the journalists’ job security.

School didn’t start until after labor day and ended in May. We also had a wall of windows that the teacher would open out. I don’t remember it ever being hot in class. The buildings were designed for better ventilation IMO.
