Not stomping through muddy disease and bug infested waters, tyvm. I still haven't had the guts to go drive past Brennans. :( Dianne- Rubber are used for other things.

In Louisiana and Texas they are generally referred to as rubber boots. We Cajuns like to give them cutesy names like shrimp boots, Cajun Reeboks or Catahoula Reeboks (because those crazy Catahoula people wear them as a fashion statement in the swamps.) I found out the people in Brennan's were the owner and 2 family members thinking it would be safer to ride out the storm there than at home since it was a solid brick building. The fire was started from a transformer blowing. So sad. Nancy: Galoshes is a weird word no one uses here. In Louisiana and Texas they are generally referred to as rubber boots.

But at least y'all are safe and you got rid of all the ghetto storage crap in your backyard. Hopefully you'll get your power back soon so that you have some a/c. I was watching the live feed when they reported the Brennans fire and I knew you'd be crushed. I'm so sorry. :(( Thanks for the videos. I'm so glad y'all are geeky enough to go to the office so that you could upload them. Mike did a great job with pics - too bad he didn't have galoshes. LOLOLOL. Actually my grandmother used to call them 'rubbers', so I'll accept his galoshes. We don't go shrimpin' on the east coast. LOL. Stay as comfortable as you can... hopefully you'll be back to semi-normal soon and the city can start to recover from this tragedy. Love you guys! That’s crazy!

Glad y'all's safe and that the ghetto fence is gone. The Brennan's story is pretty sad and rough though. Why in the world were there people inside? They’re galoshes.
