Another Old House

This house is an old house off in the boonies. It is in a remote area of the Louisiana bayou. It is primarily the style of an old Creole house inwhich hundreds of these dotted the swamps and bayous of Louisianna. As you can see this house is only accessible by boat. Creole people must have been rugged folks to have lived in places like this. This bayou is inhabited by gators and black bear. Plus take into consideration there are water moccasins and scorpions too.

A bayou is a small, slow-moving stream or creek formed in the former bed of a river. Bayous are usually located in low-lying areas, especially in the Mississippii River. Many bayous are the home of crawdads or better known as a crawfish and certain species of shrimp, other shellfish and catfish. Plus numerous softshell turtles which in some areas are becoming extinct. Other turtles are the natorious snapping turtle or alligator snapping turtle which has prehistoric horned growths on its protective shell.
