BACK TALK...

Thanks for the book review last month (Louisiana Aviation – An Extraordinary History in Photographs). I had heard a book like this was being written but didn’t know that it was already published. This is perfect for Father’s Day.

With all the festivals in Louisiana, my absolute favorite is the Catfish Festival in Winnsboro. I was pleased to see it in your magazine and emailed it to from your website to my friends out of state who drive in for this. Nothing better than Louisiana catfish!
~Melissa W., St. Francisville

I really enjoy Mary White’s articles (Bed n Beignets) each month. She provides a bit of history and entertainment in the area where the featured bed and breakfast is. I’ve actually stayed at two of the BnB’s she recommended in her column. Please thank her for the solid information.
~Paula, Ruston, via email
