See You Next Farmer’s Market!
This morning was my last Natchitoches Farmer's Market for the summer. Next weekend is the last weekend they are hosting farmer's market, but I will be out of town for my mom's burial, so I will have to miss it. This morning was a really great morning and I'm so glad I...

My Family Went to Kisatchie Longleaf Vista
Ok, so let me start off by saying this was not our first visit to Kisatchie Longleaf Vista trail. We actually LOVE this trail and have visited it many times. Yesterday is just our most recent visit. To be fair, we were actually headed to Kisatchie Bayou Campground,...
