Pensacola residents believe they finally may bet a break. Yesterday, we cruised around town and found life as normal. People mowing lawns, leisurely shopping and the beaches packed with people.
It was eerie to see houses completely destroyed from Ivan sitting on the beach with their stuff still inside, and a few feet away people sunbathing on the soft white sands.

The people here said they’ve done all they can do to prepare and they just hope it turns away.

You definitely would never guess there was a storm out there. There was a clear sky, light breeze and a beautiful sunset.

But Sunday is a new day. I awoke to find that Katrina is now a category 5 storm that covers practically the entire Gulf. Pensacola isn’t out of the woods yet. The forecast may say Louisiana but these people know that a sudden turn and it’s a new game.
