    there was an old train that went through Lacombe.. the St Tammany trace, from Slidell, to Lacombe, to Mandeville, was the tracks
    growing up in Lacombe, when the actual rails were still there, it was a great place herping..for snakes
    there are legends, by the previous generation, like my mom, of a creature with fur and big teeth, that roamed around that area... many people saw it, a lot of people thought the fur was spanish moss, until the creature jumped to the ground, and went after them

    I had one of the best ribeyes I’ve ever had in Slidell. Ribeye and a Macallan (or 4 actually).

    just after Katrina, i mean weeks, i drove down Hwy 90, across the Rigolets bridge, which my GF was terrified, but if i was able, with injuries, to push my car, the bridge with heavy construction vehicles could hold it, i went a mile down, and the whole road was gone.. there was a hole that could have swallowed my car..i got about 2 miles from the Jayne Mansfield memorial, before i had to turn around, because the road, the asphalt, was gone, and there were just holes

    Thanks for some really interesting historical information not found anywhere else.
    You should consider a feature on the Brick Industry of Southeastern Louisiana.
    And the Mad Stone of Vacherie
    Great job!

      @@LouisianaDread will do thanks. Heard about it all my life but I actually got to see the Mad Stone work on my Father-in-law’s infected hand back in the 1970s. Weirdest thing I ever say. It really did work.

    i always wondered why salmon high is not pronounced like salmon the fish.. those St Joe bricks have their own superstitions , like they can't burn
