I am now "mean green machine" and I ended up being very well off. My wife and I live in the Old Sixth Ward- 100+ year old neihborhood that has not recorded a flood since before the turn of the century- and the streak continous!. I pulled out 6 cars and a Discovery from the Montrose area. My good deads were good for my soul and ego! Memorial/ Allen PKWY were merged into Buffalo Buyou form Sawyer to Shephard. But it seems that for the most part my little part of town was higher than the Heights.
I hope all is well with my fellow Houstonians.
