Good morning Acadiana. As we start to adjust to this 'new' normal, just a reminder to use social distancing when it comes to your pets as well. Also in the word of Corona, this morning you will be waking up to the news that the Rayne Frog Festival has been canceled. And if you own a lawn service, Lafayette Consolidated Government wants to hire you to cut tall grass and weeds in the area. You may submit bids by emailing wabadie@lafayettela.gov.
