How often do you recall a memory, only to hear friends or family tell you that is not how they remember it or “That didn’t happen!” Or maybe you have to do a double take out the window or down the hall because you could have sworn you’ve seen something other than what was actually there? Happens to me all the time. Sometimes the alternative

Let’s be honest, our pets are family. Wherever we go, they go. This is especially true for my pup. And just like me, I imagine she enjoys a “vacation” from the day-to-day routines. I try to treat her once in a while. One of our favorite things about Lake Charles is the walkability of the historic districts , downtown area and the local parks to

If anything is apparent about the year 2017, is that it is on TURBO mode. Where has the year gone? We’re already planning summer vacations (or enjoying them), and before we know it – the kids will be back in school and we’ll be prepping gumbo pots and Christmas garlands. YIKES! Every month I have a message of reflection, challenges to refocus your

Nature Watching (You): #VisitLakeCharles Photo of the Month

4/28/2017 by Elizabeth Eustis

Posted In: Outdoors

One of my favorite outdoor activities is a good long nature walk mixed with nature watching. When I was young and live in the middle of the piney woods; I would take these walks often. I’d also put my imagination to work dreaming up stories (and narratives) for many of the animals and birds I’d come across. Oh, the good ol’ days. But what I never

I know I’m not alone with occasionally getting into a rut. (And by occasionally I mean more often than I’d like to admit!) It’s so easy to do the same thing every day or week. Getting comfortable with the usual. There’s hope! Every spring I cannot fight the urge to start up something new. Gardening. Yoga. Organizing my house. Exploring a new part

Living life in the moment has always been a difficult concept for me. I am such a planner! I get wrapped up in what needs to happen, what should happen or what didn’t happen. My husband is trying to teach me the art of spontaneity. It’s a work in progress. This month’s photo brought my work towards accepted the unexpected home for me. Photographer

Long exposure photography has recently caught my attention. Long exposure uses a long-duration shutter speed to sharply capture stationary elements of images while obscuring the moving elements. I’ve seen some really fascinating examples of this technique from Visit Lake Charles followers and fans. Like this one from Maggie Gregory. “I love

It’s that time again. Time to find a new outlook on life. To make a resolution or two and work hard on sticking to them. I have just one New Year’s resolution for 2017: to take the time to notice and appreciate the beauty that surrounds me. Negativity oftentimes dominates our newspapers, Facebook and Twitter news feeds. For 2017, I challenge you to
