Day 0: We’re Leaving New Orleans

Nagin has called for mandatory evacuation.  Wow.  Kathleen Blanco and some military official are with him, and they look distressed.  Bob Breck says things don’t look good and that we should leave.  I-10 West is going to be a nightmare – I hope the storm doesn’t hit the highway with people parked on it.  What a terrible thought.

D has studied the maps and recommends we leave through Slidell and then into Mississippi.  The carpenter isn’t here yet to board the windows, so we are going to have to do it ourselves.  Some heavy lifting won’t hurt before being crouched in a car for hours on end.

Our street is so quiet, it’s eerie.  Where is everyone?  Already gone?  Not going?

New Orleans survived Betsy, Camille and a lot more.  Will she make it this time?  Are we prepared for The Big One?
