Jessica has made up an itinerary for us and we will be VERY busy! We'll probably arrive at Jess's on Friday late afternoon or early evening, and starting Saturday we are going to an 11 am parade, and then tour Avery Island, and Jungle Gardens. That evening we're to do Painting with a Twist - can't wait for that! I've been to Avery Island, but not the Jungle Gardens, so hopefully the weather will be fine.
Sunday we're going to Floyd's parents to celebrate the Vietnamese New Year. I've been there before to celebrate with their family and it is a lot of fun. I'm excited for Steph, Sue, and Loretta to experience some really great food. Floyd's step dad came from Vietnam and is such a nice man. Their story of coming to the United States should be written down. It is an exciting story of how they escaped their homeland in just a little fishing boat as a family with 6 or 7 little children. Floating out in the ocean and later picked up, taken to camps in the Philippines, living in camps for a couple of years and finally getting sponsored to come to the United States. Now the children all are grown up with families of their own, and doing very well for themselves. Grandpa is now 102 years old and still very spry! He takes care of a little garden, his fruit trees and has a few chickens that he gets out to feed daily. He lives next door to Floyd's parents.
Monday we're going on a Bayou Tour at McGee's Landing. I have not done this yet. We tried to one year, but after we got there it started to rain with thunder and lightning, so the tours that day were canceled. It's a little drive, so we didn't make it back another day that year. Then in the afternoon we're going to Shadow's on the Teche tour. Later we're going to a Mardi Gras Costume Contest party.
Fat Tuesday, we're going to Houma for 3 Mardi Gras Parades. Sure the weather is good for us!
Now that's a busy schedule! Will see how well we stick to it.
Have been busy since the kids went home from their holiday visit here. Now have been making curtains and valances for granddaughter for their new house, and getting pictures into frames that Steve has been making. Will take pictures when done to show you. They're turning out nice. Seems like there is always something to keep busy with.
Today our temperature shows 25degrees F, and we're suppose to have subzero temps and nasty weather starting tomorrow for the weekend. Will see how bad it gets. We really haven't had a bad winter so far. We badly need more snow for the winter sport people. Have a great weekend everyone.

Such a beautiful post, I want to share a testimony on how Dr itua healing herbs cure me.
The worst time has passed”However, it is true that there are more improvements than before...because of the rising numbers of people living with HIV in the state of Nevada. How could they stigmatize all of them? Therefore everything becomes a little easier and we start to share everything... We also started to invite and visit each other in a community. You know, it is six years since I started taking antiretroviral drugs...Yet whatever problems I face, the worst time has passed
When I was evicted from the family home by my mother, my father rented a small room for me. But my mother and brothers believed that having HIV was my own fault – and that I deserved to be punished...I also considered myself unworthy and without hope... But I have a child and eventually I convinced myself to live for my child’s sake.
My mother knew nothing [about HIV]. She didn’t understand anything. Do you know why? She didn’t have [the chance] to go out of the house and communicate with society. However, my father does interact with the community. I know his friends are mature and dignified in africa america. So he has a better understanding than her.
My father came call me on a sadfull day sitting on my couch about a friend of his from africa who introduce him to Dr Itua herbal cure in africa in which he advise we should purchase his herbal medicine to cure my hiv so we did and Dr Itua prescribed I should drink the herbal medicine for two weeks to cure although we were so curious about the whole thing ,I finished the herbal medicine like he advised then he talked to me to visit my nearest clinic for check up I did and now I'm totally cured from Hiv my father was my rock and I and my family are now happy together also Dr Itua has be helpful in my community ever since he cure my Hiv and my tinnitus so why I'm leaving my story on here today is to reach out someone out here to hope on God and never give up no matter the situation you that you are facing especially through this pandemic seasons which has really taught us all on how we should be helpful to each other and cherish one another.
