We are off to New Roads for the annual Morrison Farm, Inc business meeting, a family affair. Morrison Farm, Inc is Angeles Plantation with roots back to 1856. Old Jacob Haight goes back even farther to the early 1820's in New Orleans.
Today it is rental business, we rent the farm and maintain the old family home. And we collect a few dollars too. But most importantly, we enjoy a family gathering and a great meal by the host. Never can tell what it is going to be but it is always outstanding. Often cooked by Jeannie and Walter Morrison, sometimes by Chris Morrison and sometimes by an outsider who semi-caters the meal. No matter it is always good.
Some times there is hogs head cheese, others with cracklings to munch on. The business meeting is not long, always a pleasure.
It is good to see the family again. We never know who will show up, cousins from South America, or wherever. All are welcome.
