Preach on brother Mike, I'm with ya too on the not condoning cruelty either but that's exactly right about being able to protect you and yours from the aggressions of dogs or any critter that is out to kill or has/been killing you're livestock ie. investment of hard work and dollars. This is the reason for leash laws at hand, the animals cannot run loose anywhere but boy o'boy I'd like to see the size of an institution it'd take to house all the rogue dogs and such running loose in La. much less all over the whole wide world "shoot". Over at Simmesport there must be a three to one ratio of dogs to citizens in that little town. Its a long story so will drop it like a hot rock right here.

It is illegal to blatantly shoot a dog for no apparent reason, it is a felony. So if you do have to do the deed make sure you've got proof and backing to cool down the jets of the money grubbers and doo-gooders out there. FYI

Oh yeah howdy do there La-yers,

forgot my manners again

A mere growl is all the legal a person needs

Personally my word and yours and it was in my yard so

Prove it wrong.

I have dealt with these issues to my head hurts and finally got records from the state on top of my trapper rights and if 1 person in this world can prove it wasnt aggressive then you had to be living in its butt to prove it and cant see that with 20/20 vision

You can only be proven wrong by admission (Ever heard the song Queen of denial I am the King )

I spend way to much time ,effort,sweat, and $ to let anything get away with ANYTHING

Hope you all are doing better than I am right now. About two weeks or so back
I got way overheated and had been having problems ever since.
Been in bed the last fee days and every evening I start running fever. Last night when
I checked it, it was 104.7 so I finally went to the ER and now I am laying up here in the
Hospital. The worse part is my sugar was like 500. Doc said it was possible that the high
Sugar was secondary to an infection and not diabetes. All the symptoms that I have had
Points to diabetes or heat stroke. W

A little Louisiana history fact........

The model for Evangeline Maid Bread has died.......

Mary Huval Guchereau, 92, died Wednesday morning. But while friends and family members are mourning the loss of a loved one, many in the community will bemoan the fact that a local icon — and part of Lafayette history — is now gone.

At 19, Mary posed as the model for Evangeline Maid Bread. Her picture has adorned millions of packages of the bread, which is as well-known in Lafayette as Community Coffee and Tabasco hot sauce. It is a picture known to most everyone in the area and something for which she will always be remembered.

"If you look at that bread wrapper, you will see how much of an icon she was," said her niece, Janie Varisco. "Everyone grew up with her. Her picture was everywhere — on signs and cross walks, everywhere."

Varisco says Guchereau was also known for Lafayette carnival's Queen Evangeline the Fifth. Until she took ill last year, she never missed a Queen's luncheon.

"She told us stories of how Mardi Gras was back then," remembered Varisco. "When she was queen, they pulled her in a horse and buggy. She really had a sharp mind. Until she died, she was the oldest living Queen Evangeline of the Southwest Mardi Gras Association."

Varisco adds that life for her aunt wasn't always easy. Guchereau lost her husband in his early 30s and raised her two daughters as a single mom. She had also experienced other tragedies in her life but managed to keep her family together.

"She was tough as a rock," Varisco said. "She had been through so much. But to us, she was our matriarch and our historian. We are all just so sad today."

Varisco says Guchereau will be missed even by those who did not know her well. That is thanks to Guchereau's father, Joe

Huval, who founded Evangeline Maid bakery in 1919. Little did Huval know that when he placed his beautiful 19-year-old daughter's face on the front of a bread wrapper, he would seal her place in history.​

Anybody else find it cooler this morning? I LOVE IT!!
Remember, we promised

the first person to complain about cold weather this winter!

I just knocked out my 3 miles & didn't even hardly break a sweat! LOVE IT!!!!

btw, my walking partner (twice a week, rest of the time I solo) told me they spotted a cougar out where they used to live, near Indian Creek in Forest Hill. She saw it very plainly & so did her little dog who was with her. Their former neighbor has been hearing it scream at night. The forester told them it would probably move on as they have a range of about 300 miles. I don't know, that doesn't sound all that comforting to me....

Have to say, the $20 orthotic inserts really do help a lot! hardly any heel pain at all today. Plus the uber-ugly pair of cotton candy pink Crocs that I now wear around the house. Whoda thunk it?!

I found the owner of the missing rabbit that ended up in my chicken yard yesterday. I will be delivering him BACK HOME as SOON as I get home. Coincidentally, this is the same neighbor who ended up with my run-away rabbit a few weeks.

YEA!!!!!!!!!! I don't have another mouth to feed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
