"Longing" to be Home

"A man travels the world over in

search of what he needs and returns home

to find it."

G. Moore

Since I have lived here almost 33 years, I have drawn

all the landmarks a long time ago. This is the namesake

for my business: the Pea Patch Farm owned by Earl

K. Long, governor and colorful politician from Winnfield.

We sell this image on prints, notecards, and postcards.

I had a call from a customer from Oklahoma this week

wanting to buy a print and have it shipped. She said

she had been in Winnfield recently and had seen the

print in the shop. I asked her which one she was interested

in, and she said, "the one on the stilts." I wasn't quite

sure what she meant, and I described several of the

drawings to her, but she insisted it was on stilts. So,

I sent her a copy of this one, to see if this is the one....

they look like blocks to me...but maybe in Oklahoma,

those qualify as "stilts". I guess she hasn't been in

south Louisiana...!
