This is quite a scenery to look at. Along the Mississippi River levee this image really contradicts 'The Great Depression'.

Looks like corn being cultivated near the house, but it is only knee high. The grass on the levee looks parched and the area is short on moisture and rainfall. Congressman William Jefferson of New Orleans was born near this time and place.
