Ten Themes to Make Halloween Trunk or Treat and Trailer Decorating Easy
Baton Rouge is a “go big or go home” city (as evidenced by LSU tailgating), and Halloween is no exception. While trick-or-treating in the local neighborhoods you might see Halloween caravans, where neighborhood parents decorate an open trailer, fill it with bales of hay, and load it up with costumed kids to deliver to friendly neighbors’ doors. Then there’s the ever-popular trunk-or-treating! This is where moms, families, businesses, and more back their cars, trucks, and trailers into parking lots and decorate them in super fun themes.

A 6 Hour Drive to Austin to Experience a 4th of July Bucket List :: Fireworks on Lake Travis
I have never experienced fireworks like the Fourth of July I had in Austin where I rented a kayak and my girlfriend's paddle boards to go out before sunset, to find the perfect location on Lake Travis. There are so many places to rent if you do not have your own. The water was filled with a crowd that consisted of rafts, kayaks, paddle boards and other inflatables.

My Dad :: My Hero
My wonderful father, Dr. Bill McHenry, is an extraordinary individual who has made a profound impact on my life and the lives of those around him. His dedication to his family, community, and grandchildren is truly inspiring, and his recent receipt of the Presidential Award for Mentorship is a well-deserved recognition of his tireless efforts.

Every Sunday, we would go to Starbucks to catch up with the latest events. My dad continues to show up for my sons, Jack and Jacob, at their...
