Deloutre Switch visits the bayou!
Deloutre Switch, an old friend whom I haven’t seen in 25 years, came down the bayou to visit. I was so enthralled by just being with her that I totally forgot to take out my camera and get some photos. Thankfully, she had her camera, and here’s one of her and hubby playing with their…
Home Alone and the Fruits of Life
Should I be broadcasting that fact to the Whole Wide World, or the World-Wide-Web, as this case may be?

Today is the first day that Termite and I have fished our lake, Decade, since the Monday before Thanksgiving. That fishing trip was long and unproductive. I can’t say the same about today, though. We left in such a hurry that I forgot my camera. So there won’t be a running photo commentary of today’s…
Bayou Bounty
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….
Time for a Wetland Lesson

Then I type the title into the Title Bar, laugh some more, and then I think of how you will certainly know I’m out of my mind and stop reading my posts. Besides, it’s too hard to do a search for my Cabbage Casserole recipe if the title is “GOT GAS?”
You got some great shots Wendy. Eagles are making a great comeback nation wide. We have seen so many in our travels. They are awesome birds we never tire of seeing.
They are really awesome birds. Thought of you day before yesterday, saw 3 osprey on the way back in from fishing.
I would’ve run off the road slamming my brakes seeing one of those magnificent birds!!!!! I know they winter here around Caddo and Lake O The Pines, but have never seen one except when we lived in Alaska…saw them all the time…..and was ALWAYS in awe of their powerful presence and breath taking beauty……You have inspired me to start watching for them locally. May have to run over to the lake today for a peek.

I still have family up that way, but I don’t get up there nearly as often as I’d like. Always enjoy your comments. That bird was GORGEOUS! Oh, did I mention I saw 3 osprey coming back from fishing Thursday?
