I also didn't know that Houston was close enough to New Orleans that people could travel back and forth to check on progress once the recovery process begins. I was imagining a couple days of travel involved; shows you just how much I know. Thank you for the responses.
Well.. New Orleans is still 350 miles from Houston - about a 7 hour trip. Not exactly a Sunday drive, but definitely just a half-days drive. We've actually made it from Houston to Dauphin Island in about 6 1/2 hours before.
