Parishes

Back in 1803, when we made the Purchase, Napoleon said, “This accession of territory affirms forever the power of the United States, and I have given England a maritime rival who sooner or later will humble her pride.” Fast forward to ’95, when 18 year-olds were still able to drink there. (They prolly would’ve let the fifteen-year-old me.) And they still didn’t have counties. And they still spoke different languages. And I ate alligator and I got lost and I got found in the French Quarter. I made it back several times in college, down to the Gulf, and heard stories of the Pelican State by my roommate from Ruston. They’re good folks, letting good times roll. With more culture and heart than most of us other Southerners can lay claim to. And she’s still humbling England.
