That would be all so cool. I visited my parents in Houma, La. in 1999 right before the main event. I wish I could have known it was going on so I could have planned it in my limited time visiting. The local paper had a lot of stories on it. I wasn't searching my family trees at the time. now that I know my Acadian ties it would be great to attend a CMA in Louisiana. Good luck to ya Don if you try to get this off the ground.
