Morning Open Thread is a daily, copyrighted post, from a host of editors and guest writers. We support our community, invite and share ideas, and encourage thoughtful, respectful dialogue in an open forum.
This series was conceived as a haven where folks can drop in to share conversation, ideas, weather reports, and music. Feel free to leave a note, comment, picture, or tune. As always the diarist gets to sleep in, and may show up long after the post is published. So you know, it's a feature, not a bug.
Pull up a chair, get your cup of tea, coffee, or other favorite morning beverage and join us for a neighborly start to the day ahead.
It has been a while since we had a Zydeco Thursday. This Thursday diary aims to fix that oversight.
Since it is Christmastime, we feature authentic Christmas music from Cajun county, by authentic Cajun and Creole musicians.
Thursday Lagniappe:
Patty Gurdy sings and plays a classic hurdy gurdy. This is her rollicking fun tribute to the season. Her hurdy gurdy logo (note the necklace pendant) looks a bit like a cat to me.
This is an open thread.
We have stories, tall tales, weather reports, critter reports, music, and companionship.
Get your favorite breakfast cup and join us.
