These are the pictures from the original Fort Adams ride. I returned after their loss. I came from my home near Breaux Bridge which is to the west so I was not able to show you the original approach from the east. Though this is the first ride, it is now a supplement to the second Fort Adams visit.  Now you know where I'm coming from, maybe?.
      My base of operations for this one was in the Folsom, La. area. I rode up La.450 from La.25. and then  turned west on La.38. All these roads are covered in the "magazine".  Let's get going, enough orientation.
A Supplement to the First Fort Adams Ride, aka, The Lost First Fort Adams Ride
Steve's Pond, Somewherealongtheway, Louisiana
     Every road is visually layered. You see stuff and you don't see stuff. I had not seen this place before and I've passed here many times. In fact, I did a whole write on La.38 and missed it. It's right on the road. Maybe it wasn't built on my last pass?
    Barn. Yes, but notice the red painted border. Pondering, bulls like red.
I could get bogged down here. I'll let you continue the pondering.
    Below, is another barn or possible garage, same property. The curled tin on both buildings are the result of Hurricane Katrina. Katrina disrupted everything. If it did not destroy history, it hastened its distruction, erasing that past as part of the future.
I guess you can tell what kind of mood I'm in.
     There are some people out there that think this website is held to historic exactness and that all my statements are fact. They are......jackasses. I'm a guy who just shares his rides and gives his observations. My mistake is I assume that most people "get it". The historical parts are as close to exact as history is. History is subjectivie. That said, then my enterpretations of what I see are as good as anyone's. A recent note from Mz. Panhead brought on that rant.
     I think the picture below was an old store. It was also on the property which leads me to believe it was operated by the owner. I may be wrong and if I am, I do apologize.
No, I don't.
