We started out here at Tabasco.
Tourists were everywhere taking pictures of important stuff.
Like barrels????
Yea, send the green stuff to Russia…
Then it was lunch time at a local dive I mean restaurant with atmosphere. 
Molly never seen a Jackolope before so she wanted her picture taken with one. 
After lunch it was snack time at a famous bakery. I guess it was famous because it was still in business.
The women got their sweets so they were happy which meant the men were now happy.
Sure why not. Jeanerette is famous for it’s sugar daddys I mean the sugar industry.
I found other things in this museum of sugar. It was a full of interesting things. I think this guy was mayor back in the 1800’s. No dental plans back then.
Here kitty kitty…….
“Carol that is not a cat!”
Here people are getting educamkated….
No Tommie Sue, not now………..during Mardi Gras…
Retired sugar cane pluckers..
We were traveling down the road and stopped to take pictures of a southern home. Much to our surprise we got invited in and it turned out to be this world well known artist Hunt Slonem.
This was his friend/caretaker/partner? He gave a brief history of the home and of Hunt Slonem.
Then inside Mr. Slonem gave us a personal tour. He’s in the yellow shirt. He was pretty cool for being a multi millionaire and high in the social lifestyle of art. He had pictures of him with famous people who have purchased his oil paintings. We got a viewing of his art. More of a abstract type work I would say. 
Looking out his back porch 
Molly gained a new acquaintance as we all did.
And then back at Betty’s it was time to eat again. I broke out some of my smoked pulled pork and it went over pretty good.
Molly really wanted to know if it was time to take a break from eating all day.
Tommie Sue was asking Betty if she could show her beads to everybody after dinner. Harrell was waiting for an answer.
Tomorrow is the swamp tour and eating more…poor Molly..
See Ya…….
