Something's telling you not to go.

Took the brunt of the bigger storm surges. The Bay St. Louis bridge is
gone. The Biloxi-Ocean Springs bridge is severely damaged. US 90 is
damaged and impassable.

Gulfport is totally trashed, Rocky.

How about BFM? Area??????


BFM has some more hangar damage, looks mostly ok. The tower is working.
The airspace is closed by TFR.

Dan,

I hope that I can help some.

I've got a whole household of furniture and everything else from my
Mom's (RIP) that I would love to give to someone who needs it.

I suggest you get in touch with Goodwill or the Salvation Army, Mike.
I'm sure they could find plenty of takers.

Actually Mike,
If you have anyway that you can physically take it down there and give it
to someone it would be great. As most donations to Goodwill and the
Salvation Army are SOLD to people who need it and often at a price that
someone could have bought used furniture out of the newspaper. That being
said, I applaud your generosity. It's folks like yourself that make the
difference.
Hey maybe for the Katrina disaster you could make one of the charity
groups promise in writing that it would not be sold but given to a needy
family, but then you pretty much have to trust them to do the right thing.
Sometimes it's just hard to make sure your help is actually making it to the
people who need the help the most.
