380. Part 2 of our interview with Kit Wohl. This week we talk about her book Iron Lace, author Kit Wohl’s passionate guided tour to the city’s most historic, celebrated, ornate, imaginative and even mysterious iron works that adorn, beautify and protect so many of New Orleans’ most treasured physical properties. Since the very founding of the city, blacksmiths and iron workers established themselves as essential craftsmen of New Orleans’ most romantic and iconic architectural details. The grape vines, rose clusters, ivy and fleur-de-lis dance along balcony railings and climb our galleries. Whimsical faces of nature peer out from gateposts. Fences take the form of rows of cornstalks in a field. Latticework, filigree, architectural detail and decorative ornamentation. A personal touch or conformist requirement. The prideful flourish of an owner’s initials. An extravagant indulgence or vital security measure. It goes by many names and interpretations, but what the work of the iron foundry men, blacksmiths, craftsmen and artisans has created for the city over three hundred years is, at its essence, a drapery of iron lace meticulously laid out over the fabric of life in this most unique and unusual city.This week in Louisiana history.

378. Part 2 of our interview with Nick Douglas about the petition to Lincoln by New Orleans' free people of color. "Fully one hundred years before the Voting Rights Act of 1965, black activists in the South launched a bold campaign for universal black suffrage. It is a stirring part of American history that most Americans were never taught. And the history leading up to it — abolitionist activities and effective black resistance to slavery in the South — has also been obscured."This week in Louisiana history. August 16, 1831.

Jimmie Jack's Alaska Fishing Lodge Podcast with Jimmie Jack Drath
We can talk all day about how great our fishing trips are. Why not hear about it from one of our recent visitors?Click here for "Original" Alaska Lodge packagesClick here for Alaska SeaScape Lodge packagesWe are excited to talk to another one of our great visitors today. Tom Asarch visited us with his grandson and they had a great time. There were many highlights to the trip, but we’ll let Tom tell you about those. Here’s what he had to say:"This was my oldest grandson's 16th birthday present. We both decided we would like to go fishing in Alaska. The one on one time with him for those five days was terrific. His favorite thing about the lodge was the food. He loved the breakfast and dinners at the lodge. The fishing was exciting and fun, but he looked forward to that and had a great time. The trip was fantastic. That was probably due to the fact we caught tons of fish. We caught yellow eye, salmon, sea bass, and lingcod. Even though there were six people on the boat, everyone caught a bunch of fish. I think I have pictures of eight or 10 whales that were there too. The scenery was beautiful, and it was a very memorable trip. All the trips were great. My favorite one happened to be Seward."The trip was fantastic… we caught tons of fish.Thanks so much to Tom for joining us at the Alaska Seascape Lodge. It was a pleasure to host you, and we hope you’ll come back to see us soon. If you have any questions for us or would like to book your own fishing trip, don’t hesitate to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you.
