Remembering Katrina

5 years ago today, Hurricane Katrina made landfall on the coast of Louisiana...





Forever changing the lives of all affected.

And this week, some 5 years later, the levees broke in Pakistan.

Forgive me, but I am not all that concerned about Pakistan. Our government hasn't even taken care of the levees on the home turf in Louisiana.

Take care of that, then I'll cry for Pakistan.

Sweep off the porch of your own house before you run off and take care of someone elses.

Sorry to rant... but I've been to New Orleans, and there is still work to be done.

I just wanted to take the time to remember that place i called home at one time...
