Not too far from Nonnie and Papa's house, rolls the Mississippi River and the haunting remains of antebellum life. One of the most visually spectacular examples of this is the Oak Alley Plantation. The oak trees that line the entryway to the home are over 300 years old, while the house itself is about 200 years old.
Nola, Nick and I toured the house with our niece, Emma, while Nonnie and, Emma's little brother, Rhys, stayed outside during the tour -- one of their jobs was to wreak havoc on the premises, while the other's job was to document said havoc-wreaking for posterity's sake. The photo to the right should reveal who had which job between Nonnie and Rhys.
How genteel!
