From Barataria Bay to Grand Isle and back.

26 May 2010. Barataria Bay to Grand Isle, Jefferson/Lafourche Parish, Louisiana.
Oil washed up on boom is taken out on a shrimp boat in Grand Isle. The economic impact is devastating with shrimp boats tied up, vacation rentals and charter boat fishing trips are cancelled. Oil from the Deepwater Horizon catastrophe is evading booms laid out to stop it thanks in part to the dispersants which means the oil travels at every depth of the Gulf and washes ashore wherever the current carries it.
