A Perfect Sunday

Today was a perfect day to spend in Abita Springs. My husband and I walked town the trace and had lunch at Rauch's Grocery. Afterwards, we went on to the En Plein Air Exhibit at the Trailhead Museum. The restored structure is simply beautiful. The exhibit featured landscapes in and around Abita Springs from local artists. Pieces were available for sale and some of the proceeds will go to support the museum. I saw a couple that I wouldn't mind having in my home, and wouldn't it be awesome to have a local artist's work? If you haven't been then hurry over and check out the exhibit.

A Busy Weekend

People looking for fun will find it in Abita Springs this weekend. Tonight Bingo will be held in Town Hall as usual. The fun starts at 6:30. Tomorrow and Sunday the new Abita Trailhead Museum will be hosting the En Plein Air Art Exhibit. It will be open on Saturday from 6-9 p.m. and on Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4p.m. On Saturday night there will also be traditional Cajun Dancing held in town hall. Lessons are from 7-8 p.m. and then the band will begin featuring Bruce Daigrepont. I think there is a nominal admission charge, but one isn't listed.
