You know you're in Louisiana when:
- You start to see drive thru daiquiri joints off the highway
- You can buy boudin-balls and crackling at the gas stations
- Teenagers use French slang words.
- There are nothing but pick-up trucks on the road equipped with atv' s and mounted riffle racks
- The roads are littered with armadillo road-kill
- When every radio station is playing zydeco music
- When fine dining isn't at a restaurant, but at a truck stop
- When there is customer service with a smile and conversation, but it takes 15 minutes to get a cup of coffee
- You start to see crosses on the side of the highway
- There are casinos in all the gas stations
- Instead of selling watermelon out of the back of trucks, they sell golf shrimp and crayfish.
- The short-cut is a dusty, gravel road
- Everyone you drive by gives you a head nod and a hands on the steering wheel finger wave
- Oh yeah...the internet connections are aweful! It takes at least a half hour to upload photos to your blog!
Plus... you get to see Nana and Uncle Jason!
