Shreveport, LA
We head to Shreveport to visit our friend Margie, a Louisianan who spent 30 years in Jersey and just last year returned to Louisiana, making her home in Shreveport. Margie has been instructed by her friend Sheron, Susan’s neighbor and friend in Short Hills (now living in Dallas), to only show us the best of her childhood hometown, Shreveport. Margie gives us exact instructions on how to drive to her place avoiding all the….interesting?…places. We run into trouble with a detour off the highway and are immediately launched into…just the places we are not supposed to be.
Nevermind. Margie, the gracious southern hostess, was now on board to take us around town. We start with lunch at Herby K’s. A good ol’ fashioned fried food joint. Yum!!
Now on to the fab sights in Shreveport. We are always able to find some interesting ones.
Elvis!!
More fun Shreveport sights:
Margie’s friend Nancy has a most interesting tree in her front yard. It’s a live oak tree with its branches growing along the ground. Natch, a photo opp.
Tomorrow we are off to Natchitoches..pronounced like Nack-i-tish..or something like that. Woo!
