ANNIVERSARY OF HURRICANE CAMILLE AUGUST 17/18, 1969


The picture below is a tugboat that was washed from the gulf two blocks inland. It was later chained and dragged back to the beach where it was displayed as a souvenir of Camille. Later a souvenir shop was built on the site. For 36 yrs. she stood as a reminder of what happened in 1969. Strangely, Katrina could not dislodge her from her post.
