here we are on the banks of the mississippi right near or even on the LSU campus..it is just s hoot and holler away ..we are also in the middle of their horse farm so lots of activity going on...
we just took an 11 mile bike ride on the dike above the river and of course saw lots of barges going up and down with their loads heading some where and even oil/gas tankers being filled up with that precious cargo as the prices of fuel seem to be creeping up and not down or even steady would be good not this going up and up...drive by a station and it is one price go by another day and it has jumped 4-6-8-cents...enough about that as we can't do anything about it..we just have to bit the bullet and try to find the cheapest station...
in the pictures there is a building in town that looks like a castle not sure if it is a government building or not...of course the lsu colliseum where of course football games are played also there is the building of the vet school and small animal clinic just like at home....
when we checked in this morning we asked about crawfish and were told there is a very good place where you buy it by the pound and take it out..so guess what the plan is for today..go find "tony"s and buy some crawfish for lar me i think i'll get shrimp as i think it is way tooooo much work to eat crawfish...now if they were all picked apart and put the meat on my plate then i would eat it but to pick it i'd starve before i had enough ahahhahaha...
some of the museums were closed today so right now that is going to be the plan for tomorrow go visit the state museum of lousianna and even the capital building...soon our tourist gig is going to be over as we need to report on sunday for the next build...so we have got to make the most of this relaxing...lar would say it is time for a gin and tonic...
