Cameron Where?




Nearly a year later this blog is not quite as upbeat. A few weeks ago I was out near the airpark and saw a FEMA trailerpark that had not yet open. Hundreds of trailers, crammed together, with no one living in them yet. Could it be that nearly a year later people are still waiting for a place to live?Not long after that the news reported that while federal aid was being extended for many affected areas, it would not be extended for Cameron. How could that be? Could it be that everything is all better there? Could it be that they've had enough time?I decided to post some pictures of Cameron so that people could judge for themselves whether Cameron still needs any help. Here are some pictures from days after the storm compared with the same area today.These pictures are of main street Cameron before and after the storm. About all that's changed is that debris has been cleared and some buildings have been demolished.
