Katrina's Ghost
I've had this picture in my photo archives for a few years, and decided to release it now for the 10th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. Seven years after that devastating disaster, we traveled to New Orleans. We did a swamp tour on the Old Pearl River and Richardson Bayou, and passed this shipwreck as the tour concluded. The guide explained to us the boat was moved 40 miles from New Orleans to this spot. This shipwreck is not unique. After Katrina, both the New Orleans and Louisiana governments attempted to contact the owners of this and other lost property that had been located. They left the property where it was for the cases where they couldn't identify the owner or they presumed dead. Slowly being claimed by the water, this boat is now one of Katrina's Ghosts.
