On the move March 25

Sorry I haven't posted this week, I meant to but I hadn't. We drove for about five hours on Sat, Sun and Monday and arrived in Bay St Louis, Ms on Monday afternoon. The weather has been good. It's in the mid 70's with sun right now but they are calling for thunderstorms later.
We used to come to this area when we lived in Tn but hadn't been back since Katrina so seeing it now my opinion is slow progress. Most of the foundations for the distroyed homes are still there but nothing else. Lots of yards have "land for sale" signs put up. The biggers chain businesses have rebuilt but not our favorite Mom and Pop seafood places. I've seen your standard restaurants like Burger King, Sonic and Mcd but while on the gulf coast I want seafood. We do know that our favorite place has relocated to another location so we'll be checking them out before we leave. They are hoping to rebuild at their orginal location but so far that hasn't happened yet.
We'll be hanging around here another couple of days and traveling again on Sat.
more later.
