We have two major shelters here in Lake Charles, LA(where I live). When I left the shelter today around 2 pm there were some people just arriving to check in at the shelter. I live about a mile from one of the shelters and saw about 8 buses headed in the direction of the shelter this evening. So, we are still getting more evacuees. Someone mentioned about donating to red cross, please do that. I am so proud of our red cross people and how well they have coordinated efforts here in my town. When I was at the shelter today, I sorted clothes. I was amazed at how many clothes there were but then I stopped and realized that it is just a drop in a bucket for all the people we have here. We are bursting at the seams. Know that volunteers will be needed for a long time to come.
