The Bajou State

I don’t think I ever thought that when I checked Louisiana off my list of states visited, I would be visiting Pineville. But, life is full of surprises.

Things I learned during my visit:

• There are two colleges in the greater Alexandria, Louisiana area (Louisiana College and LSU of Alexandria)
• You can drive a car with only a sign that says “tag applied for”
• There are several drive-thru daiquiri places (newer to Pineville as it was a dry town until recently) 
• Bread pudding can actually be good 
• There is a lot of styrofoam 
• Boiled shrimp is yummy 
• Everyone cheers for LSU and the Saints

Two different Cajun restaurants

Drive-thru daiquiri - legal as long as the straw is not in it 

A good reminder
