The Beauty of Southwest Louisiana III

By
Real Estate Agent with CENTURY 21 Mike D. Bono & Co.'s

There are so many positive "happenings" in and around Lake Charles and all of Southest Louisiana!  It is almost as if the plants and wildlife sense the renewal, and not just of spring time! It is truly a place of beauty.

While I am thankful for my years in the classroom, it certainly is a great time to be an agent in the real estate business in Lake Charles, LA!

See lots more photos on a page dedicated to "The Beauty of Southwest Louisiana." As always, thanks to the the Southwest Louisiana Convention and Visitor's Bureau for making these photos available.

I have to visit your state one of these days, these are flowers we just don't see here in the Pacific NW and it would be a shame to let such beauty pass and never get to see it. How is the fishing?

Todd,

Each season has his own beauty, but the flowers in Spring are wonderfu.  Fishing of all kinds.  From Bass and perch fishing in the lakes to the deep water off shore fishing.  They do not call this "the Sportsman's Paradise" for nothing.  Come on down.  There is something for all.

These flowers are beautiful along with the many homes you have listed. You state must be beautiful, but I am unsure that I could take the humidity in the south, but with 120 inches of snow this year in Madison, WI it is great to see these beautiful pictures. Thanks

Gary,

Thank you so very much for having THAT much confidence in me.  I have taken some nice photos, but these are not two of them.  I have a great working relationship with several great photographers who like to see their photos on my website.  I also like to see their photos on my website/blog.  If you look closely you will see a disclaimer in the fine print that states I did not take the photos.  Nice thought though.

I actively try to promote our area.  I really believe that is as much of a REALTOR's job as showing property, etc.  You have to believe in the region you are trying to "sell" to others or you are not going to do a very good job.  Hopefully that makes sense.

Duane,

We are trying to put together a Louisiana/Texas AR Gathering in Lake Charles.  We are going to let everyone know about it in case some of you want to come down and join in.  Might be a great time to see some of it for your self.  We haven't decided when yet, but it will be in 2009 some time.  Love to see you here.
