Thanks, Janet and Diane B. My name is Janet too. I grew up in New Orleans and was flooded by Betsy in 65. My husband and I were flooded again in 85 by Juan in Lacombe, La. just across Lake Pontchartrain from New Orleans. We had a house in Bay St. Louis on the bayou in 05 when Katrina hit. We were 14 ft above sea level. They said the water was 18-24 ft. in that area. That was my last time to ever be flooded. I felt and still feel sorry for the poor people who lost everything. We were veterans of collecting insurance and in Nov. of 05 we collected on wind insurance and drove straight up to TN and bought 56 acres. We love it here so though we thought K was a tragedy (especially me) I'm so happy and so is hubby. The people are so friendly and kind. We couldn't have picked a better place to live. I have chickens, roosters, and guineas in addition to the dogs. I'm in heaven. I started taking piano (took many years ago but never practiced!). My youngest daughter is here with her 2 children (7 and 8) for Christmas. Liz is in the Army and just got back from her 2nd tour in Iraq. She's stationed in Hawaii and doesn't much like it.
I'm looking forward to getting to know ya'll better and hope I can contribute also.
