'Putting Up' Fresh Corn

JayCee — Sun, 16 Jun 2013 02:26:26 +0000

Thanks to my friends Monica and Amy, I am lucky enough to get a sack of fresh corn to put up every year. Amy’s family has a farm near Bachelor, Louisiana, and they grow corn (of different varieties). I am partial to the “sweet corn”, so Amy brings a sack to Monica’s for me each [...]

Church Signs Show Irony

JayCee — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 17:01:57 +0000

How ironic? Very, in my opinion. One church sign that we saw on vacation recently shares a great message about ‘doing what’s right’; the other sign? A back-up plan, I guess…..Chester, Arkansas is a beautiful place, with beautiful people, inside and out. Rivers, mountains, dirt roads and lots of wildlife. We had just started our [...]

It’s funny really, how human beings can look at the same photograph and all see something different. Ever see an image in a cloud and no one else can see it but you? We all process the world differently. Take a look at these pictures of random things and let us know what you see. [...]

Lightning Hits Tree In Judice, Power Out To Many [PICTURES]

CJ — Thu, 06 Jun 2013 23:17:36 +0000

Earlier today a severe storm rolled through the Judice area, power out to many. The storms out in Judice seem to be more intense than other places in Lafayette parish. Since moving here about a year ago, I’ve seen what would be regular afternoon showers other places, turn into severe weather. Today was no different. [...]

Animals You Might Not Know Exist

JayCee — Wed, 29 May 2013 16:23:29 +0000

I came across this list of pictures on Imgur, and it’s a collection of animals that really exist, but look fake (does that make sense?). From the Tanuki (Raccoon Dog) to the Pink Fairy Armadillo, these animals are weird-looking, but real. Except for this one…. it’s a mythical creature, the Jackalope. These are real, though…. [...]

JayCee — Wed, 22 May 2013 00:12:18 +0000

The Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office released this photo after Monday’s deadly tornado commenting on the pup’s survival. Later, they realize that the pup was guarding a body, possibly its deceased owner. So many sights of sorrow and destruction coming from Oklahoma that it is refreshing to see sights of survival and determination. I do not [...]

'Koalaing' Could Be the Cutest Web Photo Trend Yet

Emerald Catron — Sat, 18 May 2013 05:31:00 +0000

Forget (if you haven't already) milking, planking, hadokening, any of those-ings that were internet fads for a hot minute. They've been replaced. They're done. Koalaing -- that's the trick o' the day. It involved clinging as tightly to a pole or tree as possible like a koala. It's pretty adorable. Check it out.

To my fellow citizens in the unincorporated towns of Ridge, La. and Judice, La., I’m sorry. For an area and people who take so much pride in family, culture and community, we should not accept this kind of neglect.

We call it ‘Extreme Makeunder: Celebrity Edition.’ They’re all available on a Facebook page called “Planet Hiltron.” Here are a few we like. Check out [...]

These pics from the sold out Carrie Underwood/Hunter Hayes show last night are compliments of some Facebook junkies who like to share, or if you weren’t there, rub it in. The show was incredible with Carrie Underwood hovering over the crowd on a portable stage. And of course a homecoming for Acadiana’s own Hunter Hayes. [...]
