May be too intense for some viewers.

BIG BIG THANKS to JP jefferzephyr , Ernie cajuncountry , Jayson standardtom , & Derek for collectively playing host, guide, chef, chauffeur and concierge!

I'm winding down here in cajuncountry 's beautifully appointed domicile, after a long day of work and travel.  This evening has been right out of a Southern Gothic novel or an episode of True Blood - complete with dark, storm-torn clouds lurking in a pale grey sky, black cats crossing our path, bourbon toddies, fried catfish, redneck sheriffs, Mardi Gras beads, and half-submerged car wrecks in the bayou in the middle of nowhere -  where 100 years ago a community was scoured off the face of the Earth by a hurricane.  And that was all within the first couple hours of being here.

Hell yeah, bring it. ;)
