How y'all holding up? My cousins in New Orleans-West (Katy, TX) say they're starting to wonder if they need to move to the Rockies?

Too much development, too fast...Instead of taking back and improving neighborhoods in New Orleans, Eastern New Orleans, West Metairie and Kenner were developed, effectively removing precious wetlands and spillway necessary to alleviate a community...

We're seeing it in Terrebonne, Lafourche, St. Charles, St. Mary Parishes...

Earlier this year we saw it in the Florida Parishes where officials were told it was coming and Army Corps of Engineers was too slow to address and take action...

My Dad had great advice when settling down in a community and new home one part of which was go there and visit during a heavy thunderstorm - miss that man very much...
