The official VM fiancee and I have been watching the weather reports all day long, since her family lives in the New Orleans area (they evacuated on Satuday) and we’ll be having our wedding down there next spring.
Our two lighthearted moments occurred when
a) she said, “We’re not paying the second installment of our deposit to the wedding hall till we know if it’s still standing,” and
b) when the news reports said that 20,000 to 30,000 people will be holed up in the Superdome, I said, “But how will they know if it can hold that many people?”
Let’s hope the cholera outbreaks die down by the time we go visit her family in October.
