I keep mentioning that I am surrounded by the base, so I figured I would show you what I meant. The grey area is the land area of the base. There are ranges out in the Gulf of Mexico. The light beige civilian areas are all surrounded by the base.

The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports that Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal draws big crowd in Iowa
WEST DES MOINES, Iowa — Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal introduced himself to Christian conservatives in this first-in-the-nation presidential-caucus state Saturday by talking up Louisiana’s hurricane recovery efforts and emphasizing the central role of culture in rebuilding America.

“Enough is enough already,” Jindal said, referring to the marathon presidential race that just ended. “Clearly America is ready to take a break from politics.”
