It's Mardi Gras in SWLA, so les bon temp roule'! This weekend come out and enjoy the 2016 Vinton Mardi Gras parade brought to you by the Knights of Columbus.
Lake Charles showed up and showed out on yesterday and man did they represent. We were in the building and there had to be close to 100,000 patrons lining up the streets of Ryan on yesterday. This is the first time in about 2 years that I have had the chance to get out and participate , but it was well worth it.
I know its a little late, but I had to get my pictures together of fun and friends that were out for Phat Tuesday (I know how it's spelled) in Lake Charles.. Check em out and enjoy!!
Can you believe that Mardi Gras day is almost here? Well it is and this weekend is when most of the events and parades will be happening!
Here is a list of all the Mardi Gras events and parades going on this weekend in Southwest Louisiana.
Laissez les bon temps rouler! Let the good times roll! It's carnival time, Mardi Gras time and every Mardi Gras Krewe state wide is struttin' their stuff for Louisiana's biggest and most popular festivals.
