Togetherness.

Hurricane Katrina sure did a lot of damage in the South. I can't believe how powerful & destructive Mother Nature can be sometimes.

I remember on one of our trips, we passed right over a town that had been completely wrecked by a tornado. There was a couch stuck inside of a tree!! (. . .And it wasn't part of a tree house!) It was the weirdest thing I've ever seen.

I wanted to make a pit stop & see it up close, but Max thought it would be too dangerous. Too many people around, too. I don't know what would have been more shocking - the "tree house" or the kids with wings landing to check it out.

Even though what happened to those people is very sad, what's pretty awesome is how everyone comes together in times like this to help each other out & get through this. It's like a flock, uhhh...family. :-) And nothing, not even a hurricane, can beat that.
