By Happy Monday ! It;s been a busy weekend – reworking my site- so bear with me.
Storms came through this weekend and knocked out power and internet. We are up today and everything is looking good. Typical weather for April .
As promised – I thought I would introduce you to my little town in Louisiana.
Melville is – Melville is a town in St. Landry Parish, Louisiana, United States. The population was 1,376 at the 2000 census. It is part of the Opelousas−Eunice Micropolitan Statistical Area. It was founded in 1889 and is known as the Atchafalaya River Catfish Capital of Louisiana. (wikipedia)
That means – No traffic lights, no fast food but lots of churches and great people. Typical small town in South Louisiana. So enjoy this weeks post as I highlight – My Little Town.
