Today we went on a search for cows (no, I'm not suddenly Buddhist. At least, not yet). El's fascination with our bovine milk mammals has caused us to wonder...has Elliot had a real life experience with one? Let's get them eye-to-eye.
Some folks head for the zoo (are there cows there?), but we head to the Westbank. Some past memory planted the seed in Kevin that these are just roaming the pastures of Westwego, so we loaded the kids up before dinner and headed over the Huey P.
Our wanderings led us only to a farm with two young boys herding a family of chickens, the incidental horse peeking out from the stable. Our search continues tomorrow with a little more research (tips are welcome!).
We did find two potential pearls for future visits...one was the Debirgny Antebellum Plantation. Surprisingly close, looked lovely from the locked front gate. The other was a nursery farm...lush and overgrown, and yes, also closed. Both on River Road (on the other side of the river).
Here's to keeping the spirit of travel alive!
