December 8, 2016December 4, 2016 skipperandflipper

11/30/2016 Well, it turns out that the reaction I had to checking the weather forecast when we arrived in Grand Isle was accurate. The system moving through the South Central region of Louisiana and impacting all surrounding waters and waterways is a strong one and bringing conditions unfit for a small boat. The night we… Continue reading When Life Gives You Storms…Buy a Bike!
