What's Up....

I know that it's been about 17 months since I've visited the community. I have been busy though trying to put my life back together after Hurricane Katrina. I lost the Legend, along with my house in the storm. She was under about 5 feet of water for more than 2 weeks. The house took on about 8 feet of water. When the water finally drained and I was able to get to the house and what I saw was unbelievable. Anyway, things are getting back to normal I guess in New Orleans. There's still a long way to go but I believe we'll make it. I'm driving an 84 mercedes 300sd diesel that I bought for $1800 after the storm. It's got about 260k on it. I doubt if I would buy another legend, but I really like the 2003-04 RL's. Peace

well i wasnt on here when u were..but good to know you are ok after katrina..those things are material possessions and arent as important as your life. The RL's are the shit tho man

It's good to see you're getting your life back together. I was wondering if any Legend owners around the New Orleans area were affected by the storm. I wish you all the best of luck.
