If I could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Interesting question, and one that made me put on my thinking cap. After working in many places in the U.S., a job opportunity brought us to Louisiana. When our kids were grown, life threw us a curveball, and the job that brought us…

Introduction: Many of us are intrigued by the history of the Great Depression. We envision mobsters, speakeasies, hobos riding the rails, and families struggling to make ends meet.
