I think there is an Iberville Parish range on Hwy 1 that is open to out-of-parish residents for a fee. Not sure what the fee is, though.
ETA: $12 for non-residents. Open Tuesday through Saturday, 9-5 (standard time) or 10-6 (daylight savings time)

I think Peppers is reopened if you feel like pizza. Spahr’s if you want seafood. Big Mike’s if you want BBQ, but everyone working there looks like a convict. Go Fish for sushi.
Those are all casual places. There are some classier joints, but pricier.
DO NOT go to Politz’s.

re: Are German cars worth the maintenance headaches and associated costs?
Posted by Nump on 1/30/26 at 3:07 pm to VolsOut4Harambe
Personally, it’s worth it to me. I currently have a ‘23 A5 sportback. Had an ‘18 A4 and a ‘16 GTI before that. All are/were great cars. You can do nearly all the maintenance yourself, and it’s no more expensive than any other car.
That being said, when you need a repair, it’s not cheap on the Audi’s. I had motor mounts and wheel bearings changed, and a new battery thrown in on the A4, and that set me back $4k. And that was at an independent shop. The dealership would have been much more.
BUT, I still think it’s worth it. These cars are a fantastic drive. I’ve never been disappointed with them. You’ll look forward to driving every day.
Word to the wise, do your homework on the B8 S’s prior to ‘21 or ‘22. I think some had a lifter or valve issue. If it were me and I wanted a performance Audi on a budget, I’d find the newest S3 I could afford, drop in a tune, intercooler and downpipe, and enjoy your 400-475 hp AWD go-cart.

My advice is, whatever route you decide to go down, get the ball rolling on this ASAP. As others have stated, the $200 tax stamp is going away at the end of the year, and many expect an increase in demand and a decrease in supply.
On top of that, with the government shutdown, the ATF is not processing any forms. The backlog will continue to build until the shutdown ends and they can try to catch back up. So get your forms submitted as soon as you can to claim your place in line.

re: The halfway locked double glass door and what it says about America in 2025
Posted by Nump on 10/1/25 at 11:44 am to weagle1999
It’s been happening for years now and I hate it. You get the dumb push on the door that doesn’t budge, then you get to do that little dance with the people trying to come in when you’re on the way out. Stupid and unnecessary. Why have double doors if one will be locked? It always drops the business’ stock a little in my book.
re: How do people you know pronounce "Costco"

If you’re already comfortable with a Miata-sized car, and you want a manual, and you want something that handles like it’s on rails, you have to consider a Golf R, or at the very least a GTI. I think that up until this model year, you could still get both with a manual. Add a basic tune and you’re pushing 375 hp in the GTI and 475 in the R, with room to grow. Throw in the modest back seat and very usable hatch area, and it’s an excellent all-around car.
The only downside is that it looks like a GTI/Golf R. Not the sexiest vehicle. But it might be the most fun.

New Orleans area, huh?
Go leave it in the Quarter with the keys in the ignition. It’ll get deleted real fast.

Since pretty much the beginning of the conflict, there’s been a Ukrainian flag on a pole by the Mobility Depot on Essen. That’s the only one I’ve seen in public. I don’t know if it’s the owner that placed it or if someone just stuck it there.
