Yeah I keep one ;D but it's usally for when my family moves or travels somewhere. Here's one from when we were moving from VA to CA. We had to drive through the devestated New Orleans this is the entry for it.
June, 2006
I bet it'll be a long time before they fully rebuild New Orleans. We had to pass it today. It is so different seeing it in person then it does on the news. So much sadder. It was completely deserted; I did not see a single person the whole way threw it. Worst of all it looked like a war zone.
Trees were uprooted or broken in half. Houses completely destroyed, one house still had Help written in white letters on the roof. Under the bridges there was deserted cars caked with mud. The giant billboards were bent and scared from the wind. Trash was littered everywhere, it was a horrible site.
It fills your heart with sorrow seeing this. Knowing so many lay buried somewhere from the hurricane. It feels so much like the old western ghost towns. My eyes would play tricks sometimes and I would see a lone soul walking sadly down the road caring his only possessions but when I'd turn away and look back he would be gone. Did the ghosts of the dead walk the streets here now?
Hopefully we won't have to go through New Orleans again. It is so sad being there.
I know it's not very good
But I just wanted to tell someone what it felt like going threw there.
