It seems the oysters west of the Mississippi are OK, but all of the oyster beds east of the Mississippi clear to Florida are either inundated with oil, or are suspect now and oyster companies are closing their doors and thousands are losing there livelyhoods.

The chef Paul Prudoe said they are getting seafood west of the Mississippi

We got back Sat from a vacation/tour of the oil damage in the gulf. First the weather was hot, hot, hot. Even for the South it was unbearable at times. Started in La and moved east to Miss., bama, and Florida. Saw lots of oil on the beaches in places and not so much other places. No doubt its only going to get worst.

Unlike Katrina its harder for volunteers to go down there and help. With Katrina you could take food, clothes, and building materials and help with the cleanup. Not much a person can do right now.

The people we met seemed resigned to their fate in many places. Actually the most angry ones I talked to were in Florida and they have the least damage right now. They fear what coming in the months ahead.

Its really sad what's happening down there right now.
