yesterday we met up with lar and mem for a couple of days here in breaux beidge, la.....last night we went out to dinner at a local cajun place lar had a platter full of crawfish wich took him a couple of hrs to eat but that was ok cause the restaurant had a band that was playing zedyco.cajun music..some of the locals got up to danced and they can dance young and old..a different beat from what we are used to listening too..toe tapping music and watching them dance was entertainimg..
today sat we started off by going to a flea market and it was noit the kind we are use to going to...lots of cell phone covers-junk-lots of junk--no real deals and there sure wsan't much we even wanted..
so back to the rig we came for a wee bit of lunch before heading over to the rabbit fest that was taking place in the campground...they were cooking vension and rabbit which we were able to taste some of each...we asked it there was any prize to the winners NO just bragging rights.....most everyone under over the age of 21 had a beer in their hands some it appears that they have had several beers...most everyone camps even if they live a mile away cause they know that they are going to drink and sure don't want to get a ticket....
are neighbors campers cooked last night and we got a lesson on making gumbo and red sauce with fish...you just put stuff in a pot of stir it for 3 or more hrs...drink beer and stir the pot..a redneck custon...then time for bon fires and not your little bon fire big enough to keep us warm 4 rigs down from the fire...
we now can add to our bucket list that we have attended a rabbit fest..
next month if we hang around that long we can go to the beef tongue cook-off...i think we will pass that one up...
