Then of course you would think we were going to the west coast and the Los Angeles area. No. What if I added, a southern coastal region in L. A? Then of course I must mean LA, the state postal code for Louisiana, and the Gulf of Mexico? No, what I mean is the coastal region in Lower Arkansas, or “L .A.,” as it is called by its inhabitants.
