I was seven when Carla came through Houston; we lived in Pasadena just south of where Hwy 610 (it was Channel City Road back then) crosses the Ship Channel. I remember my father tapping up the windows and our entire family sleeping in the hall of our home to be away from flying glass. After the storm passed the water was up to the front doors of the all the houses the entire length of the street.
