I took these photos as I was a passenger in a vehicle.
I used a Nikon D3100.
We went from Denham Springs, around through the scenic route
to "Fred's" by the water, drove and crossed the Sunshine Bridge, then went
through Bayou Corn where there is a sink hole with bubbling water which is a
concern of the residence there.
After that we went to Pierre Port and checked on the house
boat and visited with some of the residence.
The fish are going to die they say and that is a sad reality but happens often with a storm such as Hurricane Isaac.

Also in Pierre Port where the house boats are locate there
is an artist that I call "Mr. Adams", he has a museum of his
driftwood visionary pieces of art.
Mr. Adams is a happy man, nearly always with a smile and a
courteous disposition. We stopped to visit with him.
Off then we went through Placuemine, Louisiana where the levi
breached and shows signs of the damage to all the sugar cane.
We drove through Baton Rouge,
went to Zachary to visit a friend
and Kay, my very close friend and the driver of the vehicle
then took me home where I live In Denham Springs.

All this time my camera was pointing out the windows!

Flood waters, Hurricane Isaac, Many homes have been flooded in Louisiana. |
Flood waters, Hurricane Isaac, Here is a garbage dump under water. |
This resident saved their Baja VW Beatle, but they're home has taken on water. |
many businesses are under water. Here is a Statuary and if you notice I am taking photos out of the window of the vehicle. I'm in the passenger seat but took this one out the driver window. |
Siding on mobile homes fly away or come off during most high wind storms and it was no exception with Hurricane Isaac. |
A business took on some wind damage |
Mc Donald's still has water and people are still going to eat there |
Business flooded |

Ruined Sugar Cane |
This sign took a beating |
tree falls on home or camp |
flooding |
more flooding |
even more flooding |
On a lighter note, Mr Adam's, the artist of driftwood creations had planned well for the hurricane and had minimal damage to his museum pieces. This piece is Noah's Ark. |
A piece to scare you. At night on the Bayou, yeh, that thing might scare me. |
He moved his "Honor of our troops and Veterans" Display and securely fixed them so the storm wouldn't damage them. |
This is "Mr Adams" the artist of driftwood creations. |
Mr. Adam's is one of the most cheerful persons I have met. |
Grave sites in the south that are above ground such as these will sometimes come up and even float if there is heavy flooding. This happened in a few grave sites during Hurricane Issac |
More damaged Sugar Cane crops |
Very common to see broken limbs after the storm. |
