Probably the Katrina books would be a little too intense for me right now, although The Great Deluge does sound like a great read.<br />Hope you enjoy all your reading this week!jlshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03268434704970729620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5258224106731736323.post-13434626261365598642010-06-28T17:30:58.823-04:002010-06-28T17:30:58.823-04:00Aths, that's so cool!

I can still remember sitting by the television (I lived in CA at the time) thinking that if reporters could get in, I just didn't understand how it could be that the government couldn't. And I told my husband last night that I just can't imagine anything on that scale hitting here (FL) because we'd be in huge trouble.NancyOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12027036137062767840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5258224106731736323.post-8729899710939610272010-06-28T13:45:14.654-04:002010-06-28T13:45:14.654-04:00Hard to believe that Hurricane Katrina was already...Hard to believe that Hurricane Katrina was already five years ago.
