Snake Island a favorite swimming hole on the lake; but watch out for the islands namesake residents

Lake Claiborne is a reservoir located near the town of Homer, Louisiana. Isolated in a rural area, it is a popular man-made fishing area that has a combined estimated area of 6,400 acres (26 km2).[1] Lake Claiborne State Park, a Louisiana state maintained camping and recreation area, lies on southern shore of the lake.

The lake was created by the construction of Clairborne Lock and Dam by the United States Army Corps of Engineers in 1970. The lock is for water management and navigation; no hydroelectric power is produced here. The dam was built during the terms of Governors Jimmie H. Davis and John J McKeithen.

<p>It’s not gentrification, it’s geography. Turquoise bleeds into yellow across the hill like a heat map of economic strain. The cable cars hang polite above it all, solar panels gleaming while down below, tin roofs pray for a dry season.<br />

<p>Who needs zoning when you’ve got a bucket of leftover paint and a sense of humour? It’s a visual riot, yes, but also a quiet rebellion. Bright walls in the face of neglect, lilac trim against all odds. Poverty doesn’t preclude style.<br />

<p>The mural stares straight through you. A child’s face made of concrete and longing, stitched into Andean motifs like a quiet prayer. “Bogotá Colors,” it says, as if the whole place wasn’t already screaming it. There’s dignity here, etched in brick.<br />

<p>Ciudad Bolívar doesn’t ask for your approval. It dares you to look closer. These colours aren’t for the tourists. They’re for the neighbours, the kids, the abuelas. A quiet kind of beauty, earned through grit and gallons of leftover paint.<br />

<p>Nine million lives and no room for modesty. Bogotá sprawls like it’s still proving something. From up here, you see the tension between growth and neglect, the green lungs fighting the brown tide, and somewhere in the middle, the TransMiCable pulling its slow thread uphill.<br />

<p>12256-11716 GA-74, Forsyth, GA.  Down south an old car becomes yard art.  I am really fond of this one.  Can any of you car people identify.  I'm guessing a 1930s model A Ford?</p>
