A deceased Dr had a similar story. You could easily see the lights in Covington from Thompons Rd off Hwy 25

I live off 1088 and haven't been to the west of my exit for a few weeks... What's this all about? I'd join the hunt!

Yeah it is at every exit in the Covington area. Completely pointless

It's vandalism.
At this point, it's just ridiculous. And if there isn't a cop, or trooper, that won't address the issue and make an arrest, it's time we take the problem into our own hands.
I'm prepared to mobilize at least 12 citizens watch groups on the I-12 corridor. I have approval from 5 of them to begin surveying and extracting surveillance video without approval by the sheriff. I'm friends with Randy. I don't like going over his head, but I will.

That was Mr. Frank. I spent many a dollar at Foxhole when I was a kid. I visited his house about 8 years ago, and all I can is that his collection is friggin' amazing. Foxhole was one of the last of the "old school" army surplus stores.
If any of you baws went to CHS between 1962 and 1982, then you would have known my grandmother.

It looks like commercial cans of foam, not the foam from the box stores. Thinking its a kid working for one of the insulation companies. Trying to figure out if they are dropping it out of a truck and cars are running over it,or is it busting open on impact when hitting the ground at seventy miles per hour.

I remember when CHS burned down in 1968 or 1969 maybe. It was located more or less where William Pitcher is now.

It was strewn about for a mile or so going east the other day.
I have a feeling they live in Tangipahoa Parish and are driving this way with it.

I think CHS burned in '73 or '74. It was after my mother graduated from there in '72. The principal, Louis Wagner, was the one who saved the original school sign and bell that's on display now in front of the "new" CHS.

I saw "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo" at the old movie theater in downtown Covington behind the old courthouse.
