I would guess we are neighbors except you probably live on the Mississippi River side, and I'm right in the center of the state, bound by the Red River on one side, but some barge traffic there. In our entire parish (county, to the rest of the U.S.), there are no stop lights (only a few caution lights at intersections), and the only elevator I know of is in the courthouse, but it's often out of order.
