Smart for building the levee, dumb for not leaving.
Lots of people didn't leave lower Cameron Parish for hurricanes.
After Katrina, it made them think a lot harder.
They all left for Rita, if they didn't, they would end up like the dipsticks
in New Orleans that didn't leave.
Complacency will kill you. Being smart can save your life.
I don't wanna die till after I spend all my money. Don't wanna die with
money in the bank.

That's kinda what I was thinking. I wonder if you could cover with some type of tarp/membrane/plastic and sandbag along the entire bottom.

I moved away from there when I was 10. I go there to visit my grand parents a couple times a year and that's about all. I lived in meauraville next to Robert lemoines lumber yard. My grand parents still live in that house.
