Lincoln Beach was once a amusement park in New Orleans, Louisiana, functioning from 1939-1965. The park was for the area's African American population during the Jim Crow era of racial segregation. Heres a 2016 look at the still abandoned area.

Congrats to bride and groom

Time

Time is jus like a river,,, you can't touch the same water twice because the flow that has passed will never pass again.....heres a pic I took in the smoky mountains. ENJOY

My lane

I've always been my own boss, whether it was considered too late, before my time or out of style. Money plays factors in a lot and I'm blessed to have been raised and taught by people who lived within they're own means. That if Nuthin else taught me to b a individual and not sweat another mans nuts... Ive always did Wut made me content and was on my personal goals list regardless of a fad or new trend I've always liked what I like and did what what I did. That made me ME.  Never once considered "doin it for the ho's" or non of that other bs I hear daily throughout my shop and my daily runs. I've heard it all but I'm living proof that the underdog can still win. The same fool they once thought was lame, weird, didn't act black enough,  or dressed cheap etc etc, is the same fool cashin in on the same people that now wanna get down or be like ME in 1 way or another. 

     Many people rich, common or poor need to find themselves and what truly makes them happy and stop frontn and wearin another mans pants.... Are you living for U or them? 

I've always been in my own lane.. 🙏🏾
