Description
"cypress house in the Atchabalaya Basin" is what I posted yesterday and I talked to some one who knows the owner. They really do sleep there at night on the week end lol. party and drink and fish lol.
I did ask about this camp and he know not the people. The people who lives around here have these camps that just floats around the Basin and that it. They not made to go far and when they park them it there for a long time. They may move a few hundred yards and the it. most the time because they get into it with the neighors.
Here you see some one got a life boat from I guess a offshore place and put it here for a camp. I saw this and laff and say "at lest he do not have to worry about storms he can ride out a hurrcane in this thing. lol"
got a lot more shots of boat houses. Some people do live on them too.

Great info and capture ! Ana
facinating capture jock wow what an interesting home !!... loved reading about the lifestyle down there (...btw i thought of you the other day when I was watching a documentary about the swamps down there they said there is a bigfoot like ape roaming around in your area called a skunk ape ..( someone had taken pics of this thing & wondered if you have heard of that creature in your area ?~ lol~ )
only way here is by boat too as most I show you
Magnificent Photography, Excellent!!Congratulations!!Luminous blesing. Ludy
That's fantastic... a lifesaver!
Wow! I'd love to know more about this thing. He'll get seasick way before he'll get wet. :D The water doesn't look so much for swimming as for fishing, but I still imagine kids jumping off that dock and cooling off on the hottest days, and generally disturbing the peace.
that is awesome image :)
Your shots and commentary are so interesting. I always look forward to your posts, Jocko!
Living on Bayous and Bays most of my life I often thought floating houses would be the best way to go. Sort of like a house boat but not a boat...a small floating home like this one. Great shot!
now thats an unusual house! nice find and photo
Boy, you are right about the hurricanes! He could stock up on food and water and ride out katrina! Great shot, Jocko!!
Hehe fantastic capture you did here, and lol yeah he is pretty safe for severe storms seems :)
Now this is a strange looking thing. I would get very claustrophobic in this one.

Very interesting series, Jock and what a change from the last shot! Yes, a hurricane wouldn't bother these folks, would it?! Great find!
A perfect hide-a-way I say. Such an interesting find. Excellent. Aloha
Nice capture. Maybe they had a bad experience during Katrina and want to be better prepared the next time around, Sig..
Wow! That's cool! It's sorta like a floating submarine! Thanks for the peek! (:
Hurricane looks secure enough, Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that would be an awesome boat to have and maybe they picked it up in a salvage pretty reasonable.thanks for posting this.
This IS interesting... it looks like a submersible... WAY cool capture... and a great tale to go with it... Super image.. some people are at the right place at the right time, but it seems to me that you're always there... :)
Fantastic info and capture.
Awesome capture Jock! I love the design, but looks like it could get hot inside this one! :[
A bit cramped, but like you said a perfect place to weather out a storm ! Fun house boat capture & ~Cheers~
