    I'm from cut off on the west side of the Bayou on West 57th Street. I would like to personally thank you so very much for sharing our heritage of Bayou Lafourche. Your knowledge of the area is outstanding.

    I visited Golden Meadow twice in 2009. Great seafood, and didn't catch any blue lights behind me.

    Thank you for creating this. I have fond memories of sitting on my grandmother’s porch on the bayou in Golden Meadow. Live in north Louisiana but can still smell the bayou and recall the sights and sounds of tugs, barges, trollers on that bayou.

      No place like the bayou, but I'll be in North Louisiana very soon to tell the history up there. I love all parts of this great state and there is so much to tell!

    50 miles an hour only if you are on the 3235 4 lane!!! If you are driving along the bayou, you had better not go over 30!

    Amazing history of the area, I learned so much in 4 minutes. Been meaning to get down to Golden Meadow to fish Catfish lake, good to know to not exceed 50 mph.

    My husband, his sister and I visited Grand Isle every year for a few months to visit their sister and her family. We were warned not to speed in Golden Meadows. Lol. I was telling my husband about your history lesson when you mentioned the speed trap, I mean speed limit…

    I am a Minister and on Christmas Day I was asked to transport two Filipino Sailors to buy some personal items as their boat had been delayed in dry dock and they had run out. Going thru Golden Meadows I was pulled over for going 7 MPH over the speed limit and given like a $200.00 ticket. I wanted to contest it in court but it is the Mayor who runs traffic court. I tried to get their evidentiary procedures or rules of evidence and nobody would ever reply. Finally the Police Chief told me to send him $100.00 and he would dismiss the ticket. As It was cheaper then driving all the way back there I sent him the money and never heard another thing.

    Was the butterweed coined pis-en-lit because it resembled the dandelion, or people in golden meadow really pissing the bed after eating it?
