Ok, officially 2017-me oh my, did 2016 fly by! My wonderful car needs a new 12-volt battery after 173,000 miles! It’s really lasted way over expectations-I’m grateful. And strangely, my car’s windshield while sitting under a carport, cracked half-way down! Insurance company is working out approvals-weird, right? My car is now totally emptied out so it can get a thorough cleaning; she’ll feel so much better!
From 12/28 to 12/30 visited Waco Mammoth which I believe I posted info. I believe Mammoth were on this planet 25 million years ago to 10,000 years ago. Quite fascinating to look at the land now and realize its history. Cane River Creole in LA: visit was an old plantation with store and outbuildings. Two booklets I have yet to read on young men serving in the military. Natchez in MS:
Jean LaFitte and New Orleans Jazz, both in NOLA (New Orleans, LA) are a unique flavor, indeed. Established in the 1700s, NOLA has an amazing history and mixture of cultural influences that create its uniqueness. The French Qtr and the horse drawn carriages delighted me the most. Chocktaw Indians have a 10,000 year history and still participate in activities with Jean LaFitte NHP. The New Orleans Jazz NHP has a location in the old mint building, which I was guided to in an amazing way-and there was a parking space right in front of the entrance just for me! I got to see a museum with a large portion devoted to Satchmo!
May 2017 find our 
spirit in harmony with Mother/Father God and humankind!
Now Is Heaven 
Happy New Year ! Thanks for the great photos. Good luck with your vehicle, may it go another 176 K
