its bad
I live in Bryant, AR (15 min SW of Little Rock) and we have gotten many of the people fleeing from the hurricane. All of our hotels in central AR are filled to capacity. I went by to try to do my part and pay for a night for a family to stay and the desk clerk tells me that these folks are just happy to get socks. I'm going today to pick up some things like socks, t-shirts, board games, and toys and take it to the hotels.
As I was pumping that $3/gallon gas in my car yesterday I was approached by a local news reporter wanting to interview me about the high prices. I told them hey, at least I still have a car to put gas in and a home to drive to. When you look at the big picture, $3/gallon isn't so bad, is it?
This situation is absolutely heartbreaking. Please keep these people in your thoughts and prayers. If you have the opportunity to help PLEASE DO!
