Each week, Bristol's Babies shines the spotlight on adoptable pets right here in northwest Louisiana and with your help, we hope to eventually find them all homes!
Over the years, not only did I learn I never wanted to live anywhere I had to scoop snow ever again, but I also picked up a few hacks to make life easier in snowy, icy weather. First off, just know, if you bust your butt on the ice, someone WILL see you.
In short, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development is saying we need to stay off the roads for anything that isn't deemed essential travel for our own safety.
UPDATE: Due to inclement weather, this event has been rescheduled for Sunday, February 21, 2021.
ORIGINAL POST: Sunday is Valentine s Day and local healthcare workers at eight area hospitals are going to get a special treat thanks to The Simple Church and the Giving Bak Foundation.
This Sunday, February 14, 2021, from 8 am - 8 pm, in an effort to show our area healthcare workers how much they are appreciated and provide encouragement, the two entities expect to supply 2,500 meals and even give out some special prizes. Local businesses have stepped up to provide some incredible gifts like a Big Green Egg from Tubb s Hardware, a two-night stay at Margaritaville Resort Casino, a year s worth of pizza from Johnny s Pizza House, a year s worth of chicken fingers from Raising Cane s, and more. (Check out the full list of donors here. It s IMPRESSIVE!)

Have you ever wondered why the dates for Mardi Gras and Easter can fluctuate so much from year to year? As a dedicated fan of both holidays, I had the same question a few years back. I didn t understand why some Mardi Gras seasons only last six weeks and others were literally double the length. I got the chance to get some clarity from the past Captain of Captains for NWLA, Brian Landry.
Check out what Brian had to say. I guarantee even the most dedicated Mardi Gras reveler will learn something new!
