Important meeting

First thing Friday morning we were invited to be a part of a meeting where disaster planning was happeneing. In our meeting was a state trooper of influence, a state senator, and many other people who are actively making a difference in the relief effort.
One of the things we heard was that there was tremendous damage in the small gulf community of Bayou La Batre, AL. As soon as the meeting ended we headed there. They were so correct. The damage was hard to put into words. I took a number of pictures but there was one I could not take. It was too difficult.
In the middle of the devastation, sat a number of slabs where homes used to be( the pictures are about to be posted). On the concrete slab where her home used to be was a lady sitting in her lawn chair, knitting. It was all she had left from what we could tell. She looked to be trying to find some sort of normalcy in the middle of her chaos.
