Over the Bay, Bay Saint Louis

Gulfport, Pass Christian, all the cities from Biloxi have the beaches looking beautiful. Anyone can walk along a side walk all the way from Bay to Bay. Miles of broad boardwalks and benches. The view is breathtaking with the ocean to one side and a few hundred yards thick with hearty old oaks and the occasional tough old home mixed with the new; where there are any homes at all. I have never been along this coast and never saw it before but I can say the coast is ready, building back. The bay bridges are pedestrian safe,and the view... Walking slowly and listening to people talk about the hurricanes and the spill, it touched so deeply what it didn't wipe out. I met a man who built his dream home on the land he was born on. Now it is not a crowded neighborhood. He is like the first one in a brand new subdivision before everyone else gets the idea to move in, except he has a View of the beach. The old fart was happy as a clam. He is diabetic but too happy to care, and told me so.
Tonight I found myself again at the police station. This time it's Bay St,louis Mississippi. Who knows, tomorrow I might spend the night at the new state prison. I've had a long two days, just leave it at that...
