Cocodrie, LA
Camp PMarine
What a nice place...kept wandering around the "camp" and marvelling, yes, actually marvelling at how the place simply worked: dish towels fell to hand in the kitchen area; how the pantry doors hinged to open, exposing another split row that hinged open to access the fixed shelves in the rear; how the large lined garbage bin, would slide out, easily accessable to the what ever was chopped and discarded on the large island, where two chopping boards and a block of cutlery stood out and ready for some chopping action...as I planned to do some of the cooking, I couldn't have been more pleased with the layout;
Met, Mark Robicheaux, WSJ &
Steve Johnson, Nature Conservancy;
Re-visited:
Delbert
Steve
All the Wells, inc. Noah
Contingent Louis, featuring Albert;
Capt. Bowman, who helped Hermann manuever between the pilings; never a doubt here;
met: Thomas McClian, lockport;
Arrived to real shrimp spaghetti, done absolutely right (with the really fresh shrimp added to the simmering sauce as the heat is turned off) along with a day-old scratch fresh seafood gumbo;

The food bar was set high, befitting the Olympics atmosphere of the weekend; as I had committed to preparing breakfast for the assembly Saturday, I knew that the menu I'd planned should clear without a problem;
