Son Capt. Brent just stopped by to give us some big white shrimp he got at Cocodrie. He reports that some people found Andre's houseboat on the goat hill at PE with the roof blown off, all the windows blown out, and two goats inside. Not joking. Warren Rabb's big houseboat that was in the middle of the harbor on the wooden dock has been located 15 miles east at the end of Pass a Loutre hung up on a Chevron pipeline, but intact. It is on pontoons so does not draw much water, so guess that's how it made it all that way thru the roseau cane and shallow bays. Chevron tried to pull it off with a 1,000 h.p. tug yesterday but it would not move. Bringing in a big crane shortly. Warren plans to bring it to Venice.

No word on Wayne, et al, still presumed dead.
