Not saying that because I am overly patriotic, but because of the people...like you and your neighbors and friends. Such love and pride in their communities.<br />I love to hear about different places in the United States. I want to come visit Mississippi.<br />As Mary said...a great post on "many" levels.<br />Thanks.<br /><br />ps I love where I live, it's home, but your place is so gorgeous! I feel jealous for a minute.

August ...It's almost that time, isn't Mary? August 29th is coming soon. On returning to the coast after our evacuation from Katrina, I also knew it would be bad. I just never imagined it would be so bad. Being a native coastian I know the importance of those bridges, saw the destruction first hand, and celebrate the beauty of the memorials and re-building right along side you! It has been only through God that I have been able to find comfort from the tragedy and recognize His awesome power and the good that has come out of the ashes.GRITShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07713443532362984814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2577954446038205157.post-39555392397727840442009-07-23T10:17:47.748-05:002009-07-23T10:17:47.748-05:00cool pics. stopping by from SITS. have a great w...cool pics. stopping by from SITS. have a great weekend.RamblingMotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04148625565336724234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2577954446038205157.post-30258966195697595942009-07-23T05:26:47.955-05:002009-07-23T05:26:47.955-05:00A wonderful post.

I am so glad to read your posts again. <br /><br />What a wonderful post and such beautiful pictures of the land you love and the triumph over destruction. The mosaics truly are gorgeous, thank you for sharing them.

I haven't yet personally experienced a total devastation however I watched as one pass by... about 25 miles or so outside the eye. Rain was forced through the windows along the panes of glass. I couldn't image that would even be possible, until it happened. The rain was parallel with the ground at times. I think that was one of the scariest four hours I have ever experienced.<br /><br />I made a stop in Biloxi over the last Thanksgiving holiday. Wish you had posted this elegant, wonderfully uplifting story back then I would have definitely visited the mosaics. I clicked the pics, how awesome! This is a beautiful post. I'm looking forward to reading the next.redkathyhttp://theessenceofwomanhood.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2577954446038205157.post-64099397375268215422009-07-21T21:37:22.266-05:002009-07-21T21:37:22.266-05:00Thank you so much for sharing.

My mom wants me to hurry down to visit because she wants to walk the bridge with me--I don't know if I can though. The two things I am most afraid of in this world--bodies of water and bridges. I have a very hard time driving over bridges much less walking over them. I'll give it a try for her though!! Still loving your blog.

I am a recent subscriber... and I've tried the best Southern Tea recipe... Since I've lived in the South my whole life I thought could it really be better than mine??? lol<br /><br />The truth is, you were right about the bitterness.. I used to leave my tea bags in until the pitcher was gone. Which in my house isn't long... now I remove them after 9 minutes. <br /><br />Thanks for the tip. I'm glad I've found your blog.<br /><br />Stop by for a visit any time you are able.
