Placemarks for Mississippi damage w/ news footage
      #91274 - 08/30/05 10:06 PM

I was watching some damage footage of the Gulfport and Biloxi, MS areas on WLBT 's website, and wanted to see what the area looked like before the storm.

The video is on WLBT's frontpage as "Mississippi Gulf Coast Damage from Skycopter 3".

Other information is available located here .

Attached is my first public KMZ file. Sorry if it's a little rough -- the placemarks are all timestamped, so you should be able to follow along with the video.

Thanks for the placemarks and the link to the WLBT footage.

It is desperately sad to see this beautiful coastline devastated in this way - my friend and I drove down from Atlanta to New Orleans, along Highway 90, through Biloxi and Gulfport, in May this year, and it is upsetting seeing those awful images left in the wake of Katrina.

Our thoughts are with the people of all the affected areas and we look forward to visiting you again in happier times.

It will get better!
