One more tidbit!!!! Hurricane Rita was churning in the Gulf in late September. We were so weakened by the Katrina strike and personally could not take living the way we did in her aftermath. We made reservations in Atlanta, Ga. and left our area. Hurricanes can be unpredictable as we very well know and we weren't going to take the chance.

Dave had brought a used mini van to get to work so he drove his family and I drove behind them in my car. None of us wanted to chance losing our cars to surge waters if the storm came in on us again.

When we hit the outskirts of Atlanta it was during rush hour as people just got off from work. Dave didn't always signal when he switched lanes and I broke all kinds of traffic laws to keep up with him. And then ... What I saw was like in slow motion. It seemed that when the people saw where we were hailing from they pulled way back and let us go through. Thank you Atlanta!!!
