...Dorian Kutos PASS CHRISTIAN, MISS. The morning after the storm, the father and son left their ruined home to await rescue at the nearby beach. Four days later, they were still camped out on the decimated strand, with little more than a tarp and a few bottles of water, desperate for a ride north out of Pass Christian or a working phone to tell relatives they were alive, if not exactly well. "The house was rocking in the wind. I looked out the attic window, and water was approaching fast. I thought we were done...
