February 11, 2012 Betty is a LIVING LEGEND!

We all gathered at the Museum Cafe in Erath to see Betty inducted as a Living Legend for all she does to further the Cajun Culture.  Well, not all of her many friends could come, but her park was full and several drove and flew in from far and wide.  Go to http://www.bettybernard.blogspot.com/ to read the guestbook that folks around the world signed.
