Just as I have started to acclimate to the exciting New Orleans environment, I was pushed into the neighboring parish ( known as a county in the 49 other states). Let me tell you, I discovered the south. Just 50 minutes away, lies a completely different life. This is the life of horse farms, rural roads, small cities and large amounts of vegetable gardens. My mission (aka mission impossible), is to search out any existing Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, a species not seen in this area since the 80's. To make this a more interesting endeavor, I am spending great amounts of time trampling through cemeteries and exploring tire dumps. But anyways, welcome to St. Tammany Parish; please feel free to educate yourself about this area by watching scenes from the History Channel show, "Swamp People". With that, please St. Tammany, please let me be your alligator queen.
