Here are some shots taken along the way. Cypress trees lose their greenery during the winter, but first the "leaves" turn a dark red which is some pretty. The first scene I liked so much I took it up and down and sideways.
   There are lots of cuts in the Basin, some are used by "hunters".
Below is a "deer stand". Or a "sit and shoot" as I call them. Bwana.
Some cuts are larger.
   Thought water and electricity didn't mix.
    Now this one has a story. I think it's this one. It is just above  Henderson. Back when, there was a steam train that crossed the Basin  and it went down this cut. The line ran from Lafayette to Baton Rouge. There was a bridge across the Atchafalaya until the flood of 1927 ruined it. I have  links to the train story HERE and HERE   Read about the Town of Achafalaya.
It is very interesting and enlightens us as to the origin of the town of Henderson and Nina Station..
That bump in the road coming from Breaux Bridge to Henderson is the old track bed. Those pilings you see on the north side of the I-10 Basin Bridge are the trestle  supports.  And you  thought the Basin Bridge was a wonder. The railroad was the Wonder.
I wonder if there are more electric or petroleum "pipelines"?
    And of course the levee is a cut often creating a waterway from the "borrowed" dirt it is made of. I wonder if Nature will foreclose.any time soon?
