I have seen this resiience manytimes. We saw it first hand when we and a number of our neighbors lost our homes in January of 1996 to a devestating flood.

It is some difference from New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina isn't it?

Hi Wanda,
The very last sentence in your story is the BEST and sums up the reactions to the entire catastrophe so well. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel if we look for it.
Blessings,
