Miss Rosie's Bar



Here's "Miss Rosie's Bar" the latest lifesize sculpture to grace Lafayette. Miss Rosie and one of her customers are portrayed by artist Al LaVergne. "Miss Rosie's Bar" was recently placed in front of the Lafayette Visitor Center just off Interstate 10 on the Evangeline Thruway into Lafayette.

Hey Ken,

I was checking my Technorati links and see that someone started a blog from my old stomping grounds. I spent about 7 years growing up in Lafayette and attended USL (now LSU at Lafayette?).

Anyway, it's an interesting coincidence that I now live in Stuttgart.

Lafayette doesn't look anything like it did when I left back in 1980.

I remember all the fun I had when I visited Lafayette years ago. I think it was that trip that inspired me to buy a house on Lafayette Street afterwards. I loved your city and I loved my house.

Great photo and a great sculpture. I like it because I know what it is without having to interpret it or anything. LOL!

To be a noble charitable being is to from a philanthropic of openness to the far-out, an ability to trusteeship undeterminable things beyond your own restrain, that can lead you to be shattered in unequivocally outermost circumstances as which you were not to blame. That says something remarkably impressive relating to the condition of the righteous passion: that it is based on a trustworthiness in the uncertain and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a shop than like a treasure, something fairly tenuous, but whose acutely particular beauty is inseparable from that fragility.

I've been browsing online greater than 3 hours lately, yet I by no means discovered any interesting article like yours. It is beautiful worth enough for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made just right content as you did, the net might be a lot more useful than ever before.
