About Me

I grew up in a very small town in Louisiana then traveled around quite a bit. Over the years and outside of La., I've called Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and Naples, Italy home, and I've made some great friends along the way. Now I'm back in Louisiana and I'm searching for my next adventure. I have an idea of what that might be, but life rarely comes out exactly as we expect so I'm excited to see what's next........................................................ ............................................................ .....

I saw something on the news the other day that stunned me.  Reporters were actually sitting in front of computer screens reading people's blogs out loud to the camera.  Considering you can f...

The light at the end...

Ok, well, I'm finally about to head home.  At first I wasn't really ready to leave, but here at the end everyone has just gotten weird.  Everyone is on edge and ready to snap way too quickly...

Collective soul

Trying to change the collective conscience of an entire country is not an easy thing to do.  There's a fine line to walk between doing what is necessary and changing something just because you do...
