Hello my name is Emilee. On the friday before the storm hit I had planned to go to Florida to see my campanion. Well, we didn\'t know which way Katrina was go going to go. I thought he should come here instead because due to how the other storm hit. as we went back in forth we decieded I would come there anyway. I left that friday evening. My trip up there was peaceful. When we woke up the next morning it was headed start for my home town. I was scared. I called my family and friends to invite them to stay in Florida. The phone system was going crazy. I got a hold of some and they were all headed to safe grounds. My mom and lil brother where already on the way to me. Anyway, we rode the storm out in the sun shine state. My home was damaged but fixable. I am currently helping others to gather thier lives. God bless everyone.
