Very good. Thanks for the upload.
SUPER, BRAVO!!!!!!!!!
Its pretty sad. I live near marpaus swamp and its on its last leg because of what they did 100 years ago. Most of the trees they cut down nvr grew back and turned into marsh. U can still see alot of the stumps with axe marks on them out in the lake. And theres old trees they cut down littering the bank of pontratrain that broke free of the rafts.
Was this the Mill in Garyville that had the Rail Road to Livingston,La.?
Partner, there are so damn many trees still in south Louisiana that you can't count them all
Now, do you live in a cave and wipe your butt with your hand??
Well start wiping with your hand and live in plastic sacks. Partner
