I was in Tylertown,MS staying with some friends at a friends camp. My mom called me at about seven in the morning and told me that Katrina turned into a category five, and that they were leaving to go to my dad\'s relatives in Houston, TX. So I decided that I should get going too. Me and my fiance left to head to Houston, which took seventeen hours. Stayed at relatives houses in Houston and Corpus Cristi. Then Rita started heading toward Houston, so me and my fiance decided to meet up with her parents in Orlando, FL. We stayed in a hotel for almost two months, I found me a job. And now were staying in a house in Winter Garden, FL. My parents house I was staying in got about a five foot storm surge, everything in it had to be trashed. They have a trailer out in front of the house while they fix it up.
