This is terrible. I thought more would have been accomplished on getting people back to normal. Of course, I’m on the outside looking in. I feel for you all in those areas.

this happens every hurricane. Relief efforts flock to the coastal cities while the inland towns are mostly forgotten. It happened during Katrina with the towns in Ms which actually got the hurricane. It happened with Ivan right here around north escambia and in the Atmore community.

Seeing these photos and reading the story makes me think about the people who had to rebuild after the incredible destruction of the second world war. It was a long, arduous process. It was the same for us here after Hurricane Ivan. That event definitively changed Pensacola and this region, forever. There can be amazing economic times after such horrible tragedies, but there’s got to be outside investment. My heart goes out to the elderly, displaced, sick and widowed that are having to deal with this calamity.

No one really knows what our life is like in the aftermath. .my entire farm was destroyed and our house. life goes on. it is a relief to drive away some time just to get a chance to see the world without any destruction. .

The politicians you have elected have other priorities. Helping people recover from a natural disaster is not among them.
