I was surfing and read about that hurricane Andrew and brought memories about it. I remembered that time, I was very sick which I had bad inflammed C- section . My DD was only 3 weeks old, newborn. It was in my hometown, New Iberia, LA. We had to packed and left our home to our nearby friend (brick house) by the bayou. My mom's house that we don't think it would be there after the storm. We stayed there over night. OH my gosh, it was terrible.. We had to stay away from windows and stayed in large living room. It hit during nights. THe lights went out. But the phone line still worked! In the morning, my brother called us and let us know that our house is fine and no damaged only four pine trees broke in half. We went back home.. NO electric for 5 days. It was so humidity and hot. I never forget that.
During that night when Andrew made the landfall that night, RedRose's friend was in the hospital that was about to have baby. The baby girl arrived that night!

Look what I surfed and found that picture..
