Episode 011: A Hurricane Story {and a listener question}

SUBSCRIBE & LISTEN:

This week I take a look back at my own hurricane story, plus I answer a listener question about selling on Etsy.

I took the photo featured above a few months after Hurricane Katrina. This ship was pushed onshore in Gulfport, Mississippi by Hurricane Camille in 1969.  It was later turned into a tourist shop. Hurricane Katrina blew the store away, but the boat was still there after the devastating 2005 storm.
