One thing you can bet on is that (most of) Louisiana in general and Lake Charles in particular has some of the strongest, most resilient people on the planet. Lake Charles and SW LA will come back stronger than ever.
WOO HOO!
Now that was a real deal hurricane!
It was raining sideways, trees were bending over, chairs and other patio furniture were flying!
A dang tornado touched ground in the soybean fields about a 1/2 mile away. That sucker was loud!
The storm fizzled out at about 7 AM CST. I was just getting in my bed and the lights went out. All of the wind gusts up to 70 mph and the lights go out with 15 mph winds. They just came back on about an hour ago.
I have no cable or Internet so l don't know how bad everywhere else is.
I was riding it out like LT. Dan was in Forrest Gump.

I wasn't sure when the power was coming back on so l decided to fire up the smoker. I fed 6 neighbors some spiral cut honey ham, some chuck steak, hot dogs, and corn on the cob, all from my smoker.
One neighbor made tator salad, one made bbq pork and beans, and one made some dirty rice. They used one neighbors propane stove.
C'est Si Bon! AIYEEEEEEEE!

Yes they will.
And, the Cajun Navy is on their way there now. My son is in the CN and took 5 vacation days to go help those poor people. His 4 cousins went along too. They loaded up his uncles travel trailer and 3 trailers of supplies.
God Bless all of them!
Laissez les bons temps rouler !
