Brenda W. LaFleur August 29, 2008
Hey Bill! Great color from the bayou! I'm going to have to take some time one day when I go through Monroe to shoot some shots on "your" bayou! Be thinking about us South Louisiana folks with another storm brewing in the Gulf!! #6386243

Bill Knaps August 29, 2008
Thenk you Brenda. I am thinking of all of you and us. Rita did us damage, but not Katrina. Depends on what side hits us up here. Where I shot those shots is very hard to find Brenda. I found that part of the bayou by accident, but all of Bayou Desiard is very beautiful. Bill #6386286
