Along the Turnagain arm of the Cook Inlet the glacial silt - up to a mile thick, is what we have for beaches.
The silt can act like quicksand.
People have gone out and got stuck, then the tide comes in like a wave. Goodbye :wave:

Cajuns are professional partiers. Many used to take their families to the dance halls and party until dawn while the kids slept on pallets in the corner.

I’ve got 1 French ancestor, but he was a Huguenot protestant and moved to New Amsterdam when it was still Dutch.

I’m from Shreveport. Not a true cajun, but I love cajun culture and food! I live in VA now. I love it but the food’s better in Louisiana.

I was mistaken about the New Amsterdam.
They first fled to England and became subjects to the crown.
Jean Bodin, accompanied by his wife, Esther, fled his native country on Saturday, 13 September 1681, a date noted in the financial aid records of the Threadneedle Street Church in London.

Then to New Jersey
The arrival in America of Jean Bodin can be ascertained only by 19 June 1701, when Jean Bodin, as a resident of Middlesex County, in the Province of East Jersey, purchased an 80 acre tract of land on Staten Island, New York from Johannes and Neeltje Messereau. Middlesex County was situated just across Hudson Bay from Staten Island.
