On our way back home from Aunt Lauries we made a stop at a rest area in Louisianna. You couldn't see this rest stop from the elevated highway, elevated to keep it out of the swamp. As we cloverleaf around to this rest stop we are notified that we are "Smack Dab in the middle of the largest freshwater swamp in North America." Well isn't that just dandy, we've stopped for a potty break in the largest swamp in North America, maybe we can get one of the bigger kids to thrash around in the swamp and lure a gator in for the little kids to pet! We sat in the wooden rocking chairs on the big covered porch and made the young'ens sandwhichs while Maw scooted them through the outhouse.
Local flavor is nice and all, but jimminy Christmas.
Has it really been a year?

Where do you suppose that rest area drains into? Freshwater, indeed.
