Just getting weak cell service. I'm alive,
But OMG
Cant even discribe, on news and radio all they are talking about is baton rouge and orleans. They have nothing compared to us, we were ground zero. Orleans crying about few downed trees and telephone poles, every tree and pole are down here. Complete power grid rebuild here, houses exploded anywhere you look
Our demo govenor taking care of his voter base while we suffer here, utility crews were here on standby to begin in worst hit, all ordered to head north. Still no food, no water, no gas, only one distribution handing out nastiest mre and water, some ice, to thousands and thousands of people, one gas station tried selling gas on generator power, I went yesterday evening, 2 mile long line, people pushing their vehicles in line because they ran out of gas in line
It's bad, very very bad

I wish you the best in a terrible situation. I cannot even imagine the hel you are experiencing! Praying for you folks!

That's got to be tough. Sounds like lots of work to do. Prayers for all y'all folks down there.

Is there any kind of delivery service operating where we could send you some supplies?

Anyone here own a helicopter?

Prayers from Va...

Not yet but honestly buddy, it would be a godsend

Bud prayers from southeast Texas sir. Hurricanes suck!

Thanks for the update Bud , glad your ok , can't imagine that much destruction..

Glad to hear your alive. Will keep a look out on here to see how I can help. Will keep you in my prayers. God bless you, your family, and neighbors

I suppose it'll be awhile before roads are opened up to Bud's home. Is anyone close to Bud that knows what roads are open and what's not? I suppose regular shipping would be a nightmare about now. I'd surely donate to the cause if there's a way to get some items to him.

Man that's terrible Bud. Praying for you all.
I'm glad your safe.

Been making some calls this am Bud. Need to know some things.

Is your community accessible?
Can you be the link for your community for supplies if we can get them to you?
Can you give me a list of things you could use?

I will try to get a hold of Okie, he is not far from Bud

This guy said he is trying to help people in Louisiana it’d be worth a try.

Is the port open could a barge get there?

Just left a voicemail, at least it went that far

My boat is not big, only 17 ft but deep walled as it's a great lakes boat

Left him with the question of can my boat make it up

the bayou, I can bring supply's but would another person to help drive

Up to Bud , if he can get back to me .

Spam, water, diapers and canned beans come to mind

Clorox too

Thanks Buzz......I'm wondering how far inland it goes before roads and The Walmart is open to get supplies moving.

Looking at Google earth there appears to be a canal to Galliano maybe to the gulf. Might be full of debris!
