Cameron, Louisiana bakes under the hot August sun.
The air is thick with humidity and going outside in the afternoon is like taking a swim in a big pool of warm peanut butter.
Something brought you here. Maybe it was the fishing, maybe it was the beaches. It could’ve been a chance at the local military base or maybe you decided to stop for the night on your way somewhere else. Maybe it was just a chance to get away from it all.
Well, it’s hard to get further away than you are right now.
A barge gets away from a tugboat. A barge hits a bridge. A bridge is too unstable for vehicles to cross. There’s a helipad but no avgas can be trucked in. The base supplies are for military use only. There’s talk of getting a tanker down but getting one of those behemoths outside the channel is a risky business.
When are they gonna get the bridge back up? Shit, this is Louisiana. No one gives a damn about a sleepy little town on the Gulf.
You may as well get comfortable. It’s entirely possible you’ll be here forever.
