You can't really tell how big the JFO here in Baton Rouge is from this picture, particularly given that it extends a good deal further in both directions than is visible. And everyone here with whom I have spoken mentions their surprise at just how big this place is.

In unrelated information, this is my first visit to the South (excluding Florida and the North Carolina beaches). How did I know I was in the South? I can see the Walmart from my hotel room.
