September started with a bang as we awaited news to see where Hurricane Gustav would strike. We decided to evacuate Mandeville early Saturday morning to be on the safe side (and not to get caught in contra-flow). We went to the Veillettes to stay with Grandpa...Rich and Ronnie were enjoying the US Open in NY. As it turned out, Mandy made out OK but Baton Rouge got hit pretty hard. Both the Veillettes and my mom lost 2 trees. Thank goodness for great friends and neighbors who were ready, willing, and able to help chainsaw,rake, and clear away all the mess the storm left behind. We love good friends and neighbors!!
