This weekend the Voice of the Wetlands Festival took place at the Southdown Plantation here in Houma. The event, created by Houma musician Tab Benoit, is meant to raise money to help save our wetlands here in south Louisiana before it is too late.
Lauren ran in the 10K race, and won! She had to sprint the last 100 meteres or so to hold off a competitor. She won by 2 seconds!
My old friend Susan Cowsill was one of the performers, and it has been several years since I had seen her. She put on a great show, and was joined by her brothers to play some Cowsills hits from the past. Luckily, I was able to spend a few minutes backstage with them.
