Correct. Although “Swamp Rats” might be taken wrongly, some mighty good people down there. This is South Louisiana swamp, little else and most is already water. Most dwellings are likely elevated for just such situations, except maybe the scourge of trailer houses will be washed away.

Many will welcome the extra water, wild crawfish harvest should be tops.

True, and I probably should have added my "standard disclaimer". I grew up among them, and "most" of them are wonderful people. A lot of them "poor as dirt", and a bit looked down on by their prairie cousins, but still great folks. To paraphrase...."some of my best friends are "Swamp Rats"".

Wait for the water to go down, and hit the ponds. Load up in just a couple hours time. It would be more than welcomed, especially with the prices that hit this year.
