Could be Hwy 35 which goes from Rayne south thru Kaplan, then meets up with Hwy 82 and ends up in Pecan Island.

I want naming rights to the roads crossing that property. I vote the main road down there be renamed to "Keeyau!"

So, bringing back the old company towns? Jesus Christ.

The OT would probably hate if anybody except for Elon was suggesting this idea.

Honestly, knowing Elon, he'll probably claim that he'll do all those things and more.

And then, one year later, the OT will have forgotten all about how Elon promised the hurricane repelling machine, but they'll totally believe him when he promises a tornado repelling machine.

Huh? Given that the entire coast of Louisiana is sinking maybe he should think twice about that.........or be ready to haul a lot of clay for a massive elevated pad.

But a Space City in Vermilion Parish? THAT would be cool.

Hummm? Could North - South Pole orbits be in the future?

You know he's building a 100 million square ft building to manufacture chips and all sorts of SpaceX stuff outside Bryan-College Station, Texas. He is similar to you in that you both think big thoughts.

The employee shuttle 737 just landed at LFT. This might move faster than we think.
