Seems someone has a sense of humor. After years of reading this board and laughing at the shite yall sling at some of these small LA towns, my work is sending me to New Iberia for a week. Staying there, but driving south to an even smaller LA town for some training. My company’s product expert lives around there and a group of us are coming down.

Assume just about every gas station has great food. Also assume I can get a haircut of that namesake at any barbershop. Any places where I could run either early AM or late PM and not get stabbed/shot? I’m old, so I try to maintain a low profile when traveling for work. No bars or nightlife for me. Thinking I’ll drive the 7 hrs from Bham instead of flying into Lafayette and renting a car. Presume all Alabama car tags get pulled over on principle.


Thoughts and prayers…….

Bon Creole has great poboys.

Pie Bar is solid.

Jane’s is solid.

Visit Jefferson Island and Avery Island.

Visit the Shadows and the museum if you like history.

You can run at the park in the mornings. Usually older people walking there then. They have signs that give you the distance of the running track.

Safe to run Parkview to Lewis, then Main St. Back to the park. Scenery on Main St. Is about the best in town. And thats not saying much

My best friend is from there. Those folks are some of the nicest people and will give you the shirt off their back and feed you until you can't eat anymore. However, there's a side that you don't want any part of if you frick with them. Leave everything pleasant and it will be a great experience.
