Nothing will get your adrenaline going faster than a classic Louisiana alligator hunt. Experience an up-close, adventurous-filled, wild Louisiana alligator hunt in the confines of a private, scenic, traditional Louisiana cypress lake.
The hunt, held only during the month of September, is an once-in-a-lifetime experience. Hosted by Bourbe Lake Hunting Club, the outfitters use alligator tags issued by the Louisiana Department of Wildlife & Fisheries to hunt these pre-historic reptiles. A total of four hunters will arrive on a Friday and depart on a Sunday. Non-hunting participants can be included on the hunt for an additional fee of $750 per person.
All meals, beverages, on-site over-night accommodations, tags, licenses, firearms, ammunition and guide tips are included in the price of the hunt. Prepare to be treated to some of the finest Cajun camp cooking Louisiana has ever served up! Expect to dine on grilled boudin, gulf seafood, crawfish specialties and, of course, wild alligator.
Each hunter will be given an opportunity to harvest one wild alligator. Since hunters are attempting to harvest wild alligators the hunt is not guaranteed. However, our trained staff will work extremely hard to put all of the hunters in perfect position to harvest wild gators. Any taxidermy and hide tanning services will be at the expense of the hunters. Any hunter born after 1969 must have their Hunter Safety certification number.
Alligator hunts are extremely limited. It is encouraged to act quickly if there is interest. A 50%, non-refundable, deposit will be required to book a hunt. We will be happy to answer any additional questions you have before booking a hunt. To contact us, call toll-free, at 888-837-2801 and our actual outfitting guide will gladly speak to you about any details of the hunt.

History from Wikipedia:
Construction started in 1859, but was set back as the tower was destroyed during the Civil War in 1862. Major George H. Elliot is credited with the 1860s development of what is known as the "segmented cast-iron" light house design. In the United States, two were constructed: the Hunting Island Lighthouse and subsequently Florida's Cape Canaveral Light. Hunting Island’s Lighthouse was designed to be disassembled and moved if required. It consists of cast-iron sections, each weighing up to 1200 pounds which are bolted together to form the shell. the shell is lined with brick, which constitutes the main load-bearing structural element.
Erection commenced in 1873, and was completed in 1875. With its 167 steps that lead to an impressive observation deck, the Hunting Island Lighthouse has handsomely built cast and wrought iron staircase, railings and support beams that were fashioned by the Phoenix Iron Works company of Philadelphia. The Lighthouse was first located on the northern portion of Hunting Island, South Carolina, but severe beach erosion threatened the light station and its structures. By 1888 it was reported that the Atlantic Ocean’s high tide had reached within 35 feet of the keeper's house. As a result, the Lighthouse, the keeper's home and two other structures were relocated a mile away in 1889 to their present locale.
the shadows where moving around and there are sounds of dogs on a hunt.
It is a floor of a gallery with an exhibit of hunting stuff, guns, art etc...and it was to make you feel as though you were in the forest on the hunt.
Very surreal feeling. I didn't know if I got the shot until we were out side in the hall.

Drag hunting (also spelled draghunting) is a form of hunting with hounds, and dates to the early 19th century. A pack of hounds (usually foxhounds or beagles) hunt a scent that has been laid (dragged) over a course with a defined beginning and end, before the day's hunting. The scent, usually a combination of aniseed oils and possibly animal meats or urine, is dragged along the terrain for distances usually of 10 or more miles.
Drag hunting emphasises the thrill of riding at speed in a natural environment, and tends to follow a relatively straightforward course, allowing for considerable speed, over well-marked obstacles designed or selected with the safety of horse and rider in mind.
A hunt is divided into "legs". Each leg is "scented" just prior to the huntsman casting the hounds, who find the scent and hunt it. At the end of a leg, the hounds are held in check while the next leg is scented. Some hunts have human runners carry the scent, some use a quad and drag a scented rag tied to a rope and some apply the scent to the hooves of a lead horse who will go on ahead.

T really enjoys talking about how prehistoric boys lived, especially the part about hunting small game for their mothers' stews.
Close to the site of the once mighty Hailes Abbey, one of the foremost centres of pilgrimage in medieval England, sits this tiny church with no dedication, a simple two-cell nave and chancel, and for centuries the only functioning church here after the cathedral-sized building next-door was all but obliterated by the Dissolution.
It seems an unpretentious building but guards a secret, for within are substantial remains of the original 14th century wall paintings, coloured mainly red, orange and ochre., most of which are concentrated in the chancel, where the most prominent features are heraldic patterning and a series of mythical beasts situated over the side windows. The east window meanwhile contains elements of 15th century glass believed to be from the abbey church.
Hailes church is a little gem; the tragically scant remains of the abbey are the principal draw for visitors here, but this small church with its mural decoration is a more significant survival and shouldn't be missed.

My favorite thing about this photo is the coloration of the stars. At high magnification, the width of the Orion nebula is obvious.

Making a quick trip up towards the Garden State Secondary before leaving for vacation early the next morning, was able to help the future girlfriend get pictures of her 3rd Norfolk Southern heritage unit. Here was the "Central of Georgia" ES44AC #8101 sitting quietly along the spur track as it was in town being used for the Philips 66 drill. Parked behind the AT&T in Linden, I was able to even grab a shot of Sam taking her own shot of what would be her favorite heritage unit.

Another unsuccessful morel hunting trip until Kris found 2 enormous Blacks. Amazing! Oh and since there were no mushrooms to take pictures of, you'll have to settle for the absolutely gorgeous scenery.
