I have been super busy with back to back 2 tours a day!
Anxious to post about those, however, the rest of the good
news is that we are finally getting the concrete poured
under the Miracle Bayou Tree House today, so I won’t
be back at this computer possibly until Sunday.
I promise to update you all on everything then!
Have a great weekend!

It’s fig-picking time down the bayou, and as the comments on the fig recipe post show, lots of other places, too. So, guess what I’ve been doing? So far, I think we’ve picked about five gallons off the tree, about that many have hit the ground during the torrential rains, and about that many have…
My sister’s visits don’t come often enough to meet my need for close female companionship, but we take what we can get and cram every minute with as much life as we possibly can. This visit was no different. And in some ways, it was more special than past visits–mainly because we didn’t work on…
In our human limitations, we might not ever come to know the reasons that things happen the way they do in our lives–the good or the bad. Somehow, though, we most often seem to ask that question about the unfortunate events.
and what a boxshot it is . . . and for those of you who don’t know what speckled trout (spotted sea trout) look like . . here’s a closer look. They are really beautiful fish. Sometimes they come out of the water glowing phosphorescent pink. I knew this particular day would be my last…
Someone on the sailboat spied a dorsal fin, dangerously close to the shore. “Is that dolphin sick?” “It must be sick. It’s beached itself.” “Maybe he just got stranded by the falling tide.” On and on the speculations went by the guests onboard the “Happy Ours” sailing vessel. And while we were speculating, the good…
Before we move totally away from Fall and on to the first official day of Winter, I want to show you what abounds here. Unlike the northern part of the country, where I imagine there are pumpkins everywhere, we harvest a few different things . . . . . . like pecans, satsumas, and sugarcane….
Hey,hey! Two tours a day? Spring break? Whatever, good for you! And a concrete pour?
That’s ok. We’ll wait. 😉
It’s been a great week for tours and education. Thanks for waiting!
Glad you’ve got some good busy stuff going on. Hope all goes well!
Six tours in three days. Busy busy!!! And a Book Fest in New Orleans Saturday. Need to do a fish scouting trip Sunday if I’m not too tired. Will blog as soon as I can!!!
Pouring today! That means it will be ready for a crawfish boil on Sunday! Make sure you leave enough time to go to the bank. You’ll need to take out a loan for the crawfish. I can’t believe how expensive as they are this year! Hey, you may not have to make a trip to the bank…Dotter did come into some money this week. Her winnings should just about cover the cost of a boil. LOL
That’s what I was thinking! Higher than a cat’s back, as momma used to say!!!
I have a book fest tomorrow, so I might get to post Sunday!! Y’all hang with me okay?
Looking forward to that blog post!
Glad things are looking up for you.
We were discussing a boil in about a month. Guess I had better check prices first.
I’m sure you know the price will probably drop the day after Easter. At least that’s the way it works in Ascension Parish.
Walmart now sells live crawfish on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, they didn’t have the price posted though
Is it Louisiana crawfish?
Yes, live Louisiana at wally world.
Down the road from me a place is selling Louisiana crawfish @ $1.99/pound. Is that good? The trucks come in twice a week – if they’re selling that much it must be a good price.
Where are you? They’re selling for $1 more a pound here. Boiled-$3.89 Lb.
Are you kidding me? They are $3.99 a pound around here. Why are they cheaper when trucked to Texas???? I don’t get it! Okay, it’s settled. We’re all driving to Texas to Shore’s house for a crawfish boil!!!
Will be waiting on you!
