Ocean Springs Fishermen oiled and out of work

My first memories of the Gulf Coast were in this house in Ocean Springs.

I used to walk a few blocks from here to catch crabs for dinner.
My cousin Elick Gilmore took me to the mouth of the same Little Bayou shown in the video below and taught me to cast net for Mullet.
I remember it being lush and green with marsh grass and small trees. BP oil came ashore and changed it forever.
