Postscript

When we tell people here in DC that we just came from New Orleans their reactions would be the same if we told them we came from downtown Baghdad. Also, two people that Aubie works with in other offices called her today worried about our safety! They didn't know that we moved and were very relieved to hear that we did. It's very odd.

I'm watching a special on CNN about New Orleans. That's not the New Orleans I know. Our area in the Warehouse district was quite safe and any damage we saw was minimal. We saw quiet streets, jacked up Entergy bills and businesses that closed down early. That's about it.


We left before the new year so we haven't been around during the recent crime wave. I don't have a clue what's going on down there on the ground now. We wish everyone there the best.



We intend to start blogging about DC in the near future. I'll put up the link when we start it.
