I know. David and Heather went down for the Habitat Blitz build in 1998. First time she'd been back since she was born. I went down for the weekend to stay with friends and could not believe the change. The house we lived in when we were first married has been leveled. Several of the houses inhabited by our community are gone. The church where we were married (very white when we lived there) is now a combo of Hispanic and Vietnameese. David said the parking lot no longer accommodated the parishoners and now there were pick up trucks parked all over the lawns.

We used to eat at the Hobbit Hole (on Alabama?) and it was still there and the food quite similar. Winchell's Donuts and Hamburgers by Gourmet were both gone. The clinic where we worked on Taft and West Gray is now owned by a not for profit group and is covered entirely by murals. Lots of changes.
