    We’re in port but tied up on the pilings. I can’t get to my truck but the harbor police has everything locked down so I couldn’t move her even if I had the chance. They also locked everything down in Golden Meadow. Laura looks to be moving more westerly. Hoping she keeps doing that and flooding will be minimal in Fourchon. I already spoke with my insurance agent and I’m fully covered in the event she gets flooded. Thanks for the tag!

    Damn they were dragging their feet to get your crew in, huh? We were late and I flew into to Abbeville at 4pm on Sunday. Our boat couldn’t go to Couvillion dock and had to go to Houma due to all of Fourchon being shut down. Your truck should be ok in Fourchon. Any port west of Lafayette will be a different story.

    yeah, The company man at the rig wouldn’t let us go. If it was up to them they’d still be working us. Captain made the executive decision and we left for port. Now only if we can get the on coming crew on here before we get called back out to the rig we’ll be alright.

    Man, I hope people took heed of the warnings. It has been a while since we have seen anything like this.
    Marco was such a bust and Laura is the opposite

    LA-1 in Golden Meadow. Truck is safe but we can’t crew change till this water subsides.

    They have been talking about raising that road for years.
    Maybe they will get to it in the next few years.

    The bridge headed to Port Fourchon/Grand Isle takes a hair pin turn past the toll booth. They are building more of that bridge headed north that would drop off past the flood zone on LA-1 but its been slow going, They haven't got but 50 yards in the past year.

    It seems like it has been like that since 2013. No money. The toll was a joke.

    It’s been a few years since I’ve gone that way. I much rather go out of Lafayette or Abbeville.

    Trust me, I know how lucky we were that missed this one. I have family from Lafayette to Alexandria and up past Shreveport dealing with Laura’s BS. Hope you’re being safe.
