Crawfish house

Larry writes, "I was riding in the neighborhood when I saw this crawfish mound. The sight of it invoked a memory. When the government took our land in order to build the Green River Lake, my dad found a farm in Milltown, close to the acreage we had up on the river. I remember he would cuss those mounds pointing his finger at them, telling my mother how crawfishy that ground was. Meaning it was too wet and swampy. My father hated being moved from the place he loved. --Larry"
