The North Shore of Bay St. Louis

For me, this is the most poignant photo -- a piece of cement, in the roadside ditch. "Mike" made his hand and foot prints in this cement when he was younger. Our young boys did this same thing in fresh cement at our house, too.

"Show me, O LORD, my life's end and the number of my days; let me know how fleeting is my life... Psalm 39:4



Along the North Shore of Bay St Louis, the marinas and all the housses facing the bay were destroyed. This truck is marked with the words "Please don't loot, it's all we have left".

The words were written neatly as though the metal were flat at the time of writing -- perhaps just before ethe storm.
