I lived when we were working on the plant we built up beside the interstate. Shoot I forgot the name of it. Lake Charles is not a bad place. RTR!
Lake Charles is not a bad place. It's blue collar, influenced as much by Texas as Louisiana (hence the team is the McNeese
Cowboys), and has a heavy industrial surrounding of petrochemical plants. The odor in a west wind will take your head off.
My point was that Lake Charles is hardly a
Gulf-coast city, at least as we envision the
Gulf coast near Mobile and Pensacola. The beach is not inviting. It's trashy and littered. We used to visit Holly Beach (south of Lake Charles), and we'd always get tar balls on our shoes.
