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!

And I have been hoping for the best and not preparing at all. The latest email hurricane alert I received today places the storm at a direct hit for where I live. No kidding. I just read that email, and my head is spinning. My heart is skipping beats. My breath is coming in irregular…
If you remember, in February, I posted photos of tall leafy blades of green that would soon turn into something gorgeous. It has happened, and here they are. Spring happens very quickly down the bayou. We go from erratic spells of warm dotted with cold, and bare trees to everything in full bloom in about…
Ok, everyone. I’m home from slaving in The Cypress Cottage for a few hours and about to leave for a baseball scrimmage. I have just enough time to squeeze this contest in here and not make you wait until late tonight. I flatter myself in thinking that hundreds, nay thousands, of readers are just sitting…
Remember Lyle Johnson from this post? The following is his most recent fishing report, and I’d like to share it with you! BW I got an opportunity to make a trip down the bayou with my son Wesley. I can’t think of a better way to spend a day on the water or just about…
. . . and in with the new. Do you really want to hear this boring story? If not, click away from here. If so, let’s move on. Just look at the removal/delivery man. Even he is paying homage to the Ancient Freezer. Does anyone out there in cyberspace still own a manual defrost? Yesterday…
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!
