Birds are chirping. Frogs are croaking. An eagle is circling overhead. Scent of rain fills the air. Roar of thunder comes down the mountain. Lake Wohlford is a nice relaxing spot to get away from the city. I have passed by the lake many times on the way to Valley View Casino.

Mardi Gras is French for “Fat Tuesday”, reflecting the practice of the last night of eating rich, fatty foods before the ritual fasting of the Lenten season. Wikipedia LouZiana Food is where I went for my early Mardi Gras celebration.
