Title: I'll be leaving AH for awhile
Post by: BTW on September 07, 2005, 04:40:38 PM

I live on the West Bank of New Orleans. I cant see me playing this game for a long time. I'm back at home. No power, no people and still a few predators running the streets. It gotten a lot better though, since they've started shooting them in the head.
I have my generator running during the day, but cut it off at night so I can hear if anyone is outside. There's only one way into my house right now and I keep that guarded well.

This has been the most incredible week of my life, and I don't see it getting a lot better soon. God willing, Ill be back after Christmas.

A few blankets, extra clothes, some dry boots?

Take care, the best of luck to you

Things change day to day. I found out today, the section of New Orleans I live in may have lights in 3 days. This area is across the river from where all the flooding is. All we got was a lot of wind damage. 70% of the trees down, and maybe 30-40% of houses have significant roof damage. In a few places houses are totaly destroyed, I guess by isolated tornados.

National guard is now walking through the neighborhoods. A group just passed by as I am writing (hey NG!), so I'm no longer real concerned about looters. I think I'll run the generator and sleep with air conditioning tonight :P

I'm photo documenting the cleanup. After things get back to normal, I'll try to make up a web page.

Thanks for the the kind thoughts and wishes.

Now back to cutting trees:rolleyes:
