I ran 150' to my tractor shed from outlet outside on back of house, just like that, after Hurricane Ida when my wire in air was destroyed and telephone pole broke. No problem yet.

Used to work on pump stations for parish government. Would bring a strong magnet in case we dropped tools in water, sometimes when I had dropped a wrench I would find mine and one someone had dropped before. Never found murder weapon.
My wife doesn't vote, we have been married 53 years, I vote for us as I am a land owner and taxpayer as it was originally supposed to be.
Same with me after Ida, lost my garage fell on my car, outer buildings roofs gone, lost 2 freezers, fridge computer and generator broke had to buy new one. Had to drive 100 miles to get wife's insulin. First guestion was how much I had in bank, Insurance only paid for about half value after deduction and hurricane deduction. We were out of electricity for 28 days at 10. Gallons of gas per day, they don't want to help responsible people. Wife had transplant and we are on fixed income, we both worked our whole lives. We are in our 70's.
1972 Texas A&M, doctors tickets
Away tulane at tulane stadium, Bert Jones was quarterback don't remember year in 70's.

Picked some this morning have a vine on pasture fence behind the house in Lafourche parish. My wife loves them.
We catch a few pompano around Fourchon. Very good eating, also have in the past kept bluefish not. Terrible but eatable

Thanks, I will be able to go next week in the middle when hardly anyone else can go. Sunday we caught our limit with 5 being over 15 lbs.
Pretty good signal out. To 10 miles, then whenever near manned platforms
Have had phone call 30 miles out, of course it was telemarketers.
I got mine from LAS just under $5000 for all my windows, if I remember that was 9, they did a good job installing, that was at least 2 years ago and they still look like new.
Planted corn last year raccoons and others ate it all right when I was about to pick. This year I planted pole beans, bush beans, tomatos, bell peppers, banana peppers, yellow sqaush. Cucumbers, zucchini, beets, turnips, radishes and okra. Hope you don't have animal problems.

I always plant longhorn and pick it when still a little small and tender.
I remember hearing that cheer for a football game around 1970.
Went to saints parade after super bowl win. Left work in Houma drove with 3 coworkers to New Orleans, made a wrong turn looking for a place to park ended up in the hood, nothing but hi fives and even offered us beer. Walked to Canal street with mostly people from the hood. We had a great time with them, when parade was over our truck was still there. I think we celabrated as one people, not black or white but saints fans.
I had window world do mine after Ida. They did a great job, One guy came to my house
changed all my windows in one day. Had no problems and did a real nice job and cleaned up after.
Check with Go Repair, just south o Lockport on 308. I know he does trailer rewires, tires and other repairs. 985-637-1252.
Also check your screen in faucet, I thought I had a problem just a small amount of water came out, like a drip. Unscrewed the tip. And there was some brown grit stopping flow
Had to get passport a few years ago. They said my original birth certificate wasn't good anymore. I was born and lived my whole life in the same parish I Louisiana. So I go to clerk of court office, so while it took my hours to give all my info, my parents info, wait on them to go through this a lady who barely speaks English comes I no I d, gets birth certificate for her child in 5 minutes, crazy!
My wife and I are 72. She has had liver transplant and many other problems, she can barely walk. When we go o stores handicap spots are all full and scoters are all taken up by fat people younger than us who really need to walk. When I go by myself I park far away and walk
