Who can feel stress among such calming scenery!!! The sunset photos are awesome!!!😘🤗Mom
Geaux GurusWe got pretty lucky! The owner of the patch of land we stayed at last night (and tonight) was Roland Doucet. Seriously sounded like he was from South Louisiana. Great people.

So I have to ask, “ is that cute little pink building an outhouse?” Nice parking spot!!!😉
Geaux GurusIt is not. This is a closed down camping site. They have several little chalets like the pink one shuttered. No trash or facilities. True, free off grid site. We have been there for three days of glorious views!
