The diverse group of bloggers living in New Orleans are doing a fantastic job of keeping the city on the radar, covering all aspects of their hell on earth, from runaway crime to national opinions of our local politicians and "working women "; from our undying love for the Saints to the evil, money grubbing bastardly judges who give the city a black eye ; from the state of necessary and unnecessary housing demolitions in the city to the camraderie that Katrina created among those talented people, the NOLA bloggers are truely awe inspiring.
One NOLA blogger, who writes in a style that makes you see, smell and hear his visions writes about life in Debrisville in late July 2007.
On this side of the lake, I'm beginning to construct a chronicle of what we that live here view as progress.
Here in the Bayou Liberty area, we are seeing positive progress
as well as negative progress
the construction of an I10 interchange, two years late
The depressing sight of people still living in those FEMA trailers
Debris trucks are still an every day sight SOMEWHERE in our daily commutes
In the Bayou Liberty Marina, new boat slips are being constructed.
Nope, things won't be "Okay" for a long time. To all of you who've been down here, working on helping please know that we will always be appreciative.
We love living here. We pay the price of our love.
