The Guardians of the Dirt Road

I (along with my daughters) drove from Monroe, Louisiana, to the community of Aimoch in LaSalle parish to visit the graves of Don C. (my father) and my Big Brother.

After turning east off of US Hwy 165 in Grayson, La., we pulled off the road to take some photos of a cool looking old red shack.

But behind the shack was a bunch of mules, or what I took to be mules, with these two in a mirror image of one another seemingly guarding the dirt road that led back through the property.

This is one of my favorite photos from our trip to Louisiana to visit my family.
