The Prairie Creole Museum will have its grand opening this Samedi at 9 o'clock in Ville Platte on 1763 Toulouse Street. The new museum features artifacts from days gone by, informational literature, interactive displays, and much more that will educate, inform, and entertain the public concerning the prairie Creole culture of southern Evangeline Parish. All groups of people who made the culture are represented at the new museum: French, Canadian, African, Irish, Acadian, Spanish, German, Native American, and others. Ice chests are allowed inside for the grand opening.
Fiction - but it would be nice.
I posted this before but look at these guys and gals having fun at Fort Toulouse. The Fort Toulouse group is just one aspect of prairie Creole history for Southern Evangeline.

I changed my mind again about this blogspot. Blogs are flexible and one can write anything on them. I'm not a professional writer so I don't have to worry about format rules. I can write a "column," "feature story," "news article," satire, short story, bullsh@@, etc, etc. I'll do the same with my new one. I can just practice French too on both of them. I've been slacking but I do have Whatley's Conversational Cajun French tapes and looking for a cassette player. My char's player broke.. the piece of merde.
