Some of you asked for more photos. Couple of days ago I went for a drive through the major agricultural area of my parish, which is in the northwest corner of Louisiana, abutting Texas and Arkansas. The Red River cuts through this farmland, and the land shown here is only about a mile from the river---a fact that raises questions I don't have the answers to.
