Thanks to Hurricane Katrina, Mississippi Golf Coast is no more

You have to feel for everybody in Mississippi and Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina swept through, including the Mississippi Golf Coast, in the Biloxi-Gulfport area.

You can bet those courses won't be up and running for some time, if ever. Calls to the area were, not surprisingly, unsuccessful. In fact, we here in Florida are having a difficult time calling out anywhere, and we were just slapped by the storm. The Gulf Coast was dealt a haymaker.

What a complete shame: the Golf Coast is a great area, with all those casinos and good courses nearby. Here's wishing them a successful recovery; I know I sent in my donation to the Red Cross. I wish I could do more.
