Floatting Dreams

The American Dream Project  is now going on for a few months along the  the US roads.

Now in Lafayette, LA  after leaving New Orleans in  a feverish party mood  not because of the carnival, but for the football game.

This morning   I met Ken O’ Brien , 56, in Gonzales , on  the parking  lot of  the Best Western .  Veteran, sky diver, as he  was about to leave with his boss for his work day.  He repairs roofs.  Well, actually industrial roofs such as the ones  topping the oil refineries  making the skyline along the  Mississippi here. Kevin is a sky catcher. He goes really high, some engine taking him up to the clouds. He left Pennsylvania some months ago looking for a job here. Since then, he leaves in this  motel, in this room. I make good money here.  There is always work to do. That’s my American Dream. One day, I will  retire in Jamaica.

Then, the road was leading along  lakes and bayous where I found these floating  secret hideouts.

Enjoy!
