The way of life there is shrimping, it's all they know. It's august season and even after all this is done it's gonna be a hard road, again.
I am just sick about this.

It seems so unfair.

I just talked to one of my coworkers whose Mother lives just outside of New Orleans and she told pretty much the same story. Her Mother had apparently tethered a flat bottom boat to their deck and is prepared to use it if the water continues to rise.
