Several years ago, I tried to write a single paragraph that contained every cliché ever used to describe what happens in urban Louisiana on Mardi Gras.
It went something like this:
The second of Franklin’s bicentennial celebration events took place Wednesday night at the Teche Theatre for the Performing Arts amidst a packed house.
Juanita Clements and Andrea Dumesnil
St. Mary Soil and Water Conservation District Secretary Andrea Dumesnil and her crew of volunteers are at it again.
The Krewe of Adonis will hold the area’s only nighttime parade at 7 p.m. Feb. 21.

Officials have been watching the Atchafalaya River level at Morgan City for more than a month, hoping 2020 won't bring a repeat of last year's flooding. At 6 a.m. Thursday, the river was at 6.33 feet. The minor flood stage is 6 feet. The river is expected to stay close to 6.5 feet into next week.
While officials are monitoring flood conditions along the Mississippi River, the water levels are not expected to rival last year’s record-setting flood fight.
