Wish that I lived near a coast so that I could assist with cleanup. Or any waterway.

Yes, cleanup/waterway issues all along the Gulf Coast. Devastating.

Clicked.

ICC sounds like fun. Also, a good thing.

sumac,
you most certainly are allowed to post. IMHO

The destruction along the Gulf Coast is terrible. I don't know if our friends living there are ok or not. They all evacuated except for one retired couple close to biloxi, MS. The couple who decided to stay live about a mile from the beach. I do hope they are ok.

I hope you hear from your friends soon, danon.

Some friends of mine from another forum haven't been heard from since late Sunday. It's a frightening time.

Hi wildclickers!

sumac, devastating for the gulf coast. <good thoughts for our friends at the Roost>

Dan, I agree. ICC's a good organization.

We've seen nature at its very worst the past year, devastating peoples lives and homes. With all its mysteries, nature offers also beautiful sites and colors from the statosphere. Found the site during research today...http://www.sundog.clara.co.uk/atoptics/phenom.htm

Good photos Stradee,
The pic of the double rainbow reminded me of one day flying in SE Asia. It was Monsoon and when the sun popped out I saw TWO complete rainbow rings - one circle inside the other (or outside, take your choice).

I'm very worried about our friends in Ocean Springs, MS - it's immediately East of Biloxi. Keeping everything crossed for luck.

Danon, keeping a good thought for you and your friends. A few people at the roost we still haven't heard word from - and family of posters have evacuated to safety. 80 per cent of New Orleans flooded.

Cool story Dan! Recall seeing a rainbow during a flight to Columbia, <thunder and lightening> but the rainbow afterwards spectacular.

More rainbow photos

I heard from somewhere, in recent days, that the Mississippi delta loses, or has recently lost, one acre of wetlands every 24 minutes.

Will go click.

I will volunteer to host a family here - but I am too far away, I fear, and who will coordinate such information?

hello all. Hope your friends are safe. I couldn't access our 63 by my usual means and had to finally go hunting ebeths email on hotmail waht a round-about route! I'm glad to be back.
What a sad mess. That poor city and its inhabitants need all our help and prayers.
