ENTREE

____________________________________

The best introduction
is one that is
simple,
natural,
and speaks of a consistant
development over time.

Oak Ally Plantation
-along the west bank of
the Mississippi River
near Vacherie
Louisiana
USA

Built in 1839
this Greek revival plantation house
is the grand old lady
of Louisiana plantation homes.
But, it is the trees,
28 live oaks
planted a few years before 1720,
that provides the majestic welcome-
an entree,
a quarter mile long
green canopied approach
from the River Road
to the front porch.
