The Sun Herald | 06/22/2006 | Afraid of heights: "GULF PARK ESTATES - Ruth Prichard is 87 and wants to live where she has lived for 33 years, in a mobile home on a bayou in south Jackson County.
But she's afraid of heights.
Heights became an issue in her life only after Katrina, whose surge took her mobile home and left in its wake new flood-elevation requirements.
The elevation for her property, three lots on Simmons Bayou, is 12 feet off the ground or 18 feet above sea level. She's looking for another way. She wants the county to allow her to go back at a lower elevation."
