looking from previous miss chevron station at a neighboring exxon station
nothing functioning at this exit
they should red "X" the fuel signs on the interstate if the stations are inoperable

truck tires are worth more than a BMW set

those two and many I pictured haven't moved since the storm
the VW was likely flooded into it's resting place
the big lincoln was cornered against the building
maybe 1 in 15 houses in these acres and acres of desolation had trailers from FEMA out front
otherwise like a ghost town

downtown new orleans
building "for sale"

 

[Spartacus]

one of dozens of abandoned car lots
mainly concentrated under the interstates
but I also noticed many car dealerships with about half of their lot space being used for storing flooded wrecks
toyota was in business
KIA wasn't

I also noticed about a half dozen different people campaigning for mayor
