I have to say New Year’s Eve in New Orleans was a bit surreal. Reporter Baird Helgeson and I joined local New Orleans residents in Jackson Square to celebrate the coming new year.  A thick, heavy fog had settled over the city and I almost half expected…]]> Katrina's Path Revisited - With Kathy Moore 2006-01-02T05:04:09+00:00 A Quiet Night on Bourbon Street http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/hurricane/comments/a_quiet_night_on_bourbon_street/ Walking down the neon lined street looking for dinner at about 10 last night, I was trying to imagine what Bourbon Street was like before Hurricane Katrina hit four months ago. I have to admit this trip has been my initiation to the famed street. I have heard stories and…]]> Katrina's Path Revisited - With Kathy Moore 2005-12-29T01:38:48+00:00 Holiday Greetings http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/hurricane/comments/holiday_greetings/ Photo Gallery: Along Highway 46

The answer is always the same: Working. Reporter Baird Helgeson and I will be out searching for stories in New Orleans. We spent this morning and early afternoon in Arnaud’s, a famed Creole restaurant in the French Quarter. Katrina's Path Revisited - With Kathy Moore 2005-12-24T23:56:39+00:00 Little has changed http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/hurricane/comments/little_has_changed/ It is almost eerie. I was here four months ago after Hurricane Katrina, and in some ways it seems like I never left.  We revisited some of the areas like Gulfport, and Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, where our teams spent a few days after the storm. The scene then was…]]> Katrina's Path Revisited - With Kathy Moore 2005-12-22T20:07:39+00:00 Coping With Humor http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/hurricane/comments/coping_with_humor/

As we drove along the roadway that parallels Highway 90 in Gulfport, Miss., on Wednesday, I realized in the midst of all the history that was lost in the tragedy that was Hurricane Katrina, people seem to find humor to help themselves cope. Someone placed a pink…]]> Katrina's Path Revisited - With Kathy Moore 2005-12-22T14:07:52+00:00 Oysters? http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/hurricane/comments/oysters/

Leaving Dauphin Island this morning we stopped to watch a boat named Patches chug down a canal next to the roadway. Burlap bags bulging with their morning catch heaped on the bow.
“Ya ee oistuhs?” the pudgier man asked in a slow, swampy draw.
I…]]> Katrina's Path Revisited - With Kathy Moore 2005-12-20T19:56:57+00:00 Waking up in Mobile…. brrrrr http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/hurricane/comments/waking_up_in_mobile_brrrrr/

We are in Mobile, Alabama.  I had to pull out the fleece jacket. It is a cold morning out - quite a difference since the last time we were here. We are planning to head out to Dauphin Island this morning to see the changes there.

What exactly did men do in a Tallahassee washroom to warrant a ban on toilet paper at the Mckenzie Markets gas station?

After four hours on the road we stopped to get gas and reload on diet soda. I walk to the women’s restroom, and…]]> Katrina's Path Revisited - With Kathy Moore 2005-12-19T22:46:56+00:00 Preparing to leave http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/hurricane/comments/preparing_to_leave1/ Reporter Baird Helgeson and I leave tomorrow to revisit areas of Mississippi and Louisiana that were hit by Hurricane Katrina. I am curious to see for myself how the area has changed since we were last there after the storm. I plan to bring you photos and audio from what…]]> Katrina's Path Revisited - With Kathy Moore 2005-12-19T00:50:32+00:00
