Katrina damaged or destroyed thousands of trees, including in Ocean Springs
It also became apparent to me, as I drove, that in a lot of these towns and cities along the Gulf Coast, the casual observer or tourist is actually not going to see a lot of the hurricane damage simply because it is hidden from view. The layout of Ocean Springs itself interweaves between the coastline and the bayous, with much of the lingering damage obscured by treelines, swamps and winding roads. So you have to take the time to look, which I did in my own small way in. If I had spent the whole day exploring Ocean Springs and interviewing people, who knows what else I would have come across. Perhaps some of our OpEdNews.com readers who live in this area will have their own stories to tell in the comments section after they look at my brief photos.
So I cordially invite you to take a look at my second photo album in this series under "Mac's Slide Show" (click on)
Below are several more photos from this series:
