Katrina

I have always felt that the true greatness of our country comes from the decency and humanity of it's citizens. I just got off the telephone with my cousin Melanie where most of our conversation concerned the hurricane that devastated parts of the Gulf Coast area. My cousin grew up in Louisianna, but now resides in Houston. She plans on opening her small apartment to a family whose lives have been turned upside down these last few days. Her unflinching reaction to this devastating horror has made me proud as well as humbled me. Melanie is so cool.
