| Introduction | I am retired from the Petrochemical Refining Industry. I enjoy attending outdoor musical festivals and most activities that are associated with beautiful weather. I am a Taurusian. The springtime is my favorite time of the year. I am studying Afro-Carribean cultures. I am curently focused on the Creoles of Lousiana and the Carribean. Additionally, the island of Cuba has been a recent focus of study. I believe there is much to learn from the islands and their relationship to Louisiana lifestyle. I am very proud of my Louisiana heritage. Above all, I love sharing the traditions of my culture with everyone. So, I invite you to read my stories and visit us in Louisiana. I'm certain, there will be a festival or cultural celebration that may interest you. |
