This is what greeted us this morning . . . fog, fog, and more fog . . .
These are actual digital, color photos unretouched. I did NOT change them to black and white. The fog seems to suck the color out of everything. Pretty amazing.
Check back here tonight . . . I feel a contest coming on!!!!!
It’s the end of another year, and I find myself sitting here at loose ends–so many things I should have gotten done in 2011 and did not, for whatever reasons. As time goes, it’s just another Saturday, but the fact that it’s the last Saturday of the year puts an undue pressure on me to get up and get something done. I started on Chapter 10 of the Adventures of Bayou Woman, but it’s not flowing, so I know it’s not the time to start a new chapter.
What bayou-cross-cultural conference is complete without Zydeco dance lessons? Our hostess literally thought of everything–she even spoiled us with the most decadent King Cake from Randazzo’s in New Orleans (way up there in Batavia, NY!). And not just ONE flavor, but several. The one with Pecan Praline filling was my very favorite.

This is the site that greeted me when I drove up to the concrete plant today to pay my bill for the concrete tomorrow. Piles of sand, pea gravel, and limestone. Then along came this big front end loader and . . . dumped a load of limstone in the hopper . . . and…
You’ve probably been wondering for the past week where I’ve been, haven’t you? I know, you’ve been thinking, “Hm, I bet the awesome fishing trip with those retired Assorted Nuts wore her out!” And those Assorted Nuts have been thinking, “Poor BW. She just can’t hang!” Well, you’re all wrong, because the trip was fantastic and invigorating and left me with memories that will go way beyond the Assorted Nuts and the fish they caught.
Did anyone watch a certain cooking show this morning, where “it’s a good thing” is said quite often? There I was, painting in the quiet of The Cypress Cottage, when I decided to turn on the TV to drown out all my unfruitful thoughts. I don’t often have the opportunity to watch daytime TV, but…
Stunning! Although, I would be afraid to be on water in those surrondings.
Spooky…
