    ST. MARTINVILLE -- On July 02, 2009, agents with the St. Martin Parish Sheriff's Office executed a search warrant on Landry St. in Breaux Bridge, La.

    Was it me who, not long ago, quoted that children’s rhyme about “Rain, rain, go away?” If so, I take it all back.

    Bonjour!

    It’s good to be back playing the Petit Paris Café in St. Martinville. Carolyn and Terry Dupuis bought it last October but were unable to open on Sundays because they lacked a weekend cook.

    This Saturday, July 4th, we celebrate America’s 233rd birthday. Only 233 years ago the Declaration of Independence was adopted by the Second Continental Congress on July 4, 1776. Seven years later the United States of America became the free and independent nation we have enjoyed ever since.

    Many centuries ago people were known only by their first names. It was only 600 to 700 years ago that people began using surnames.
