Grand Isle

Just sitting there at one of the edges of the Louisiana gulf coast is a quaint little city that is a throwback to when taking it easy was the daily motto of all the town folk. Grand Isle is a fishing community that sits right on the beach of the gulf of mexico is molded on the scale of that television show cheers,where everybody knows your name and this is truly the case of this wonderful little city. For over ten years i worked offshore and we use to board the helicopter right at the edge of town,but we use to get there early so that we could visit some of our adopted family,man they would feed us and talk about the annual tarpon rodeo as if it was Christmas..it wasn't to them it was much bigger. Those folks would sit around and talk and make fun of the summer tourist who just couldn't adjust to easy living and would often pull out soon after getting there......good riddance ,it was there lost. Listen that little place holds a special place in my heart not to mention my stomach.
