Following Hurricane Ike the beaches around Gulfport, Mississippi, are still closed and look to be closed for awhile. I am afraid they will return them to postcard-perfect before allowing humans on them. They looked fantastic before the hurricanes, with miles of light-colored sand, easy highway access, and sheltered water due to the barrier islands. Even so, rarely do they draw a crowd and then only tourists, as the locals typically shun them. Whereas in California, people from all over crowd onto marginal beaches seeking the beach high-culture. Am I missing something?
