I know a number of people who have put levees around their houses.

I know of a catfish farmer that had 10 track hoe's raising his levees so he didn't lose any of the catfish from the ponds... Numerous others put levees around their shops. It's been a crazy month where I live.

Has anybody from Baton Rouge ever noticed the house off Elliot Road (in extreme south east baton rouge parish) that has a permanent levee built around his house?

All he has to do is fill in the driveway and he's ready to go and has been ready for years lol.

In early summer 2001, last time we had a major local flood (which was due to a tropical storm, not Mississippi river situation), I'm pretty I sure I remember he dammed the whole thing up.
