Yeah, I know these aren't high paying jobs. But in this economy, the fact that Monroe has pulled in the V Vehicle plant, Gardner-Thomas, the Chase expansion and the chicken-plant reopening is impressive for a town this size.

c'mon dude. the 10-foot diving board was the B-O-M-B.
The only problem is the aggregate on the bottom of the pool..holy crap that tore my feet up to no end. I don't think i ever left that pool without having bloody stumps for toes.

Shreveport/Bossier is booming also due to the shale. I just left there and the feeling is very upbeat even with the GM plant closing.
