Glad to see Southern Hospitality is alive & well! I only
wish that I could have been there.
I can also vouch for Steve's work and I am glad for him
that letterboxing is finally taking off in Louisiana.
He has waited a long time.

Well, I don't know about *SO* many! But it's a start. What part of
the state will you be visiting? I hope it's Baton Rouge.

I've never had much luck with the freshwater fish. I prefer the
marshes where you can get big redfish or speckled trout or
flounder. And if the fish aren't biting, you can still always come
home with a dinner of blue crab. But I haven't been fishing in a
long time...
