Are boats needed anywhere? I've got people with boats asking me where, and how to get there.
I think they're needed in AP near St. Amant. Might be able to put in somewhere along 431. Maybe someone in that area can confirm/correct.

Wick,
did they cut your power yet?
my brother lives on 22 near huff chapel and was told the power was going to be cut off soon...
they are dry but locked in by flood waters...
would suck to lose power when you've made it through the risk of rising waters...

Water did not get in my house, I'm not got to say it was close I built it 6.5' over the base flood elevation and because down there and inch rise happens over such a large area, but you just never know... It was much closer than I ever thought it would be...

Wick,
You need a place to stay?
I've got some room and my camper is plugged up in the driveway if you are interested...

We are good, life long friend has plenty of room and has us housed. Thanks for the offer

Trying to figure out how bad it'll be, I know of some who lives a few blocks from the lake and is refusing to leave despite evacuation orders.
