Hesco baskets? Yeah they used them during katrina on airline hwy and between katrina and rita to reinforce the levees.. after awhile water just starts going through them which is why they are burying them and using them to help preserve the wetlands.

I hope there's not another attack. :(

Yeah, but there will be. This is "fighting season" there, starting in May, and what is left of Al Q and its subset, the Haqqani Network, is throwing everything they've got. *sigh*

Thank you for the moral support and the new info about the Hesco baskets! I love them. I sent them an email fan letter; they didn't write back.

Thank you for sharing. I've been following along, even though I haven't been commenting. I was really relieved to read you'd heard from your nephew.

Thanks, honey, it means a lot to me to get the moral support. His feet have healed up and I'll be doing another update soon.

Hope you're having a good summer with the pups!
