We're going to have some guests
This notice came from the governor's office today:
Gov. Mike Easley today announced that victims displaced from their Gulf Coast homes by Hurricane Katrina will be provided shelter in North Carolina. Easley made an initial offer to accept 1000 citizens in Charlotte, Raleigh and Greensboro. More refugees may be accepted as the need develops.
