“~~~~~~~ they are ready, have you seen the movie or read the book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. That book mostly tells the whole story in that area. Those people are tough.”


I met John Berendt, the author once years ago along with UGA’s Sonny Seiler. Berendt was a strange but interesting guy. Yeah South Georgian’s are tough but the flooding this storm may bring is going to test their mettle.

I lived in southeast Georgia for 25+ years (retired from working for the City of Savannah). In all the time I worked and lived there (and during the ten years I have lived in Texas) they never seem to have dealt adequately with street flooding no matter how much $$ they spend on drainage projects. Besides that, just a run of the mill high tide will flood Hwy 80 and make it impassable (the one road leading to Tybee Island)
