I got up early and went to New Orleans for the Bar Association meeting.  It was BORING.  The most heated exchange was about a policy that the house had voted on two years ago.  Some folks wanted to revisit it.  Ugh.
I had lunch with Dan, a friend who is a surgical resident at Oschner.  He was headed to a boring meeting of his own at the Ritz Carlton downtown.  We caught up on the last couple of months and our trips to opposite coasts to visit sisters for New Year's.
Next I headed to Prarieville to visit with Jacob and Charmin and to pick up JP.  He fell asleep right before we left, so the drive was easy.  Once we got home we ate dinner and now we're watching Kenny Chesney on TV in front of a warm fire.  A nice ending to a pretty good day.
An observation about geography:  I drove into New Orleans on I-55, and you drive over water for a good part of the way.  I left on I-10 West, and the same is true.  As for the other two routes into New Orleans, the Causeway travels over the middle of Lake Pontchatrain and I-10 East travels over a pretty good chunk of the Lake.  This is by no means a new observation, but the point is, New Orleans is pretty much an island.
