Bethany, Texas-Louisiana is an unincorporated community on the Louisiana and Texas state lines on…read moreU.S. Highway 79, yes the town once claimed both states as its location one of the early stores, bisected by the state line, was built in 1889 by a barkeeper who wanted to take advantage of the differences in state laws; in half of the store drinking was legal, in the other gambling was legal proving the that times may change but people haven't. The town once went by the name Lick Skillet if ever the truth was told many towns of the era were called by that same name all boasting tales of the name's origin, from the food being so good or so scarce people would lick the skillets or the only scraps left to feed the dogs was for them to lick the skillets, I am sure the truth lies somewhere in between the myths. Although Bethany abandoned the name Lick Skillet, many of the town's features retain the name such as the Lick Skillet Plantation, a thoroughbred breeding farm, and the Lick Skillet Old Time Store. There is also a Lick Skillet Arts and Crafts Festival which includes live bands, food vendors, and exhibits by local artists and craftsman. Bethany was founded in 1840 long before barbed wire fences and paved highways marked the historic road that eventually became known as the "Old Shreveport Road" it originally was part of a prehistoric trade route from Dallas to Shreveport (not named towns at the time) established by the Caddo Indians. On the north side of the road heading east at the state line is a Marker placed in 1936 that reads: "Site of Bethany - A thriving town of the fifties - through it passed the Shreveport road over which many emigrants entered Texas". There not much left of Bethany now but lots of memories, I'd say by the looks of it the historic value exceeds the town's net worth, but I'm sure those that remain like it that way.

Thrill Hill, as this bumpy, curvy, stretch of road on Gilbert Drive is universally known, as far as…read morethe Shreveport universe goes, is to be adored, admired, and certainly respected. The speed limit on this fairway is 35 miles per hour. It is an attraction premium for sledding as the snow falls on the occasional winter we might have in this area. (So, keep the toboggan within arm's reach should a snowflake appear and then descend!) This self-named Hill or series thereof successive Hills also may have some attraction to the occasional or even overnight extreme athlete be it via skate or possibly longboard, though it's somewhat terrifying to even imagine attempting this feat, especially with oncoming traffic in both, and at some points in this high speed quest even all possible directions. In a motor vehicle, at higher rates of ill-advised speeds one might actually catch their desired and sought after air and pull their very own Dukes of Hazzard, but this is again ill-advised, because we all know that what goes up, must at some point with great certainty also come down, and this is, sad to say that to stick this landing right here may be more difficult than one may have imagined or preconceived before that final press of the accelerator.

They ran out of drinking water and I asked for more they only had two small bottles left. The staff said she had to go out to get more. It was 10pm so told her that's ok. Then asked to have more in the morning. They still didn't have it in morning so I said that's ok and left. Lisa later that they left me a long message saying how she traveled the world and always knew what she needed. That it was my fault for not knowing. She then continued to say that her staff went above and beyond. I told her above and beyond is already having water and getting more of it before telling someone that they don't have it. I've never stayed in a place where they ran out of water. Also it was way dirtier and worn then the photos. Lisa has much room to improve as a host
