First Week in Louisana 2012

We arrived in Houma, Louisiana on Sunday (11th of March) and on Monday morning started working on another Habitat project.    This Build we have a group of 18 college students from St Louis University , SLU, for short and they have been GREAT.   In fact on of the girls is from Indianapolis and just might be a good fit for a babysitter for Ally 's kids this summer.,  You never know who you will meet and how things will work out.
Jim and Linda Matheny our friends from Virginia, Larry and Tracy Saulsgiver from New York are with us and two other people,.  Mike Kennedy travels by himself as his wife would rather be at home with the grandkids, and Dyana Todd is single and is from Washington state. 
The weather has been great except for rain on Monday afternoon but it waited until we were done working and the rest of the week was good. 
Last night we went to a place called the Jolly Inn to enjoy some real Cajun music and we really had a good time.   These people in La. really know how to party.

The kids are leaving today so we will be working by ourselves next week.   After that the Mathenys and us are heading to Natchez Miss and up the Trace to Nashville for some good country music.

I forgot to add that we are going to a St Paddys Day parade tomorrow and I understand instead of throwing beads they throw vegetables.    We don;'t need any though as we are having our cornbeef and cabbage tonight for dinner.
Later.
