This January I'll be joining a work crew in Biloxi, MS. It will be either the first or third week- will know later in the week. We'll be ripping out ruined houses and perhaps starting the rebuild.I am really excited to be doing this.

How long will you be there? I might be in Biloxi for a dog show around then.

Probably a week. It will be either the first or third week.

I don't think I'll have free time, though. I hear the work days are about 12 hours.

Ah, oh well. I'm not sure yet when (if) I'll be there anyhow. I love Biloxi though - I'm glad you are helping to rebuild it. [Smile]

I'd like to thank you. Biloxi is my hometown. It's painful to see the pics of what is gone. I wish I could go myself but a baby makes that difficult. If it's open, go to Mary Mahoney's and have some gumbo! It's the best!

You yankees are funny.

Gumbo in Biloxi? Wave to Canada for me while you're up there.

I second that, JT. Outside of south LA, gumbo isn't gumbo. I don't care where you go. It's just not.
