we are planning to drive to New Orleans through Strasburg VA and Chattanooga TN next week
We drove through the Strasburg area on Saturday (day trip into WV), and everything was just fine.
If TN is too badly flooded, you could detour onto I-77 in SW VA, then get onto I-85 at Charlotte, NC. That'll take you through Atlanta.
People: you might want to opt out of Spokeo, pronto [link]
From Snopes, the final note says that asking to have things taken off seems to have no effect, and it's entirely possible that part of their business model is getting email addresses from people trying to opt out.
I'd take the chance of spam. My Flickr is private, God dammit, and they're still showing pictures out of it.
Speaking of the flooding, it looks like RWA National is definitely not going to be in Nashville-- they were investigating trying the convention center/multiple hotel route, but that's not going to work either since the damage is so widespread and things are in such a massive state of flux.
They should hold it in Providence, say the weekend of June 26. Bet they could get a deal!

Just taking a quick look, most of your pics are marked "Anyone can see this photo." We are friends on flickr but I was able to log out and see your pictures.

Yes, he was.

Yes, but I put my settings so it won't be searchable via search engines.

If my understanding of these things is accurate, it doesn't make them unsearchable, it just adds some code that asks search engines to not index them, assuming the search engines play nice.

Yeah, that's how that works.
My favorite "Are you fucking kidding me?" moment: RWA should have had a contingency plan in place with reservations at another hotel/resort, just in case.
You can't be too careful. You never know when the Cumberland might crest at its all-time high.
