Yesterday, I went down to Schawee's place and hung out. We boiled shrimp, looked at some of his bee hives, made his initiation video...
This is part one.

Hangin' Out In Paulina, Louisiana With Schawee-Part One (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBYRrYeH6_8#ws)
MMMM! I could tell by the look though that those weren't no Louisiana shrimp no! Them sure did look like Florida shrimp for true!
Scott
They was 100% Louisiana shrimp. That's why they were soooo good! :-D
...JP
Oh no! I saw Fred in there. I've know that shrimp since he was an egg! You can't go tellin' me those weren't Florida shrimp.
Scott
Those shrimp jumped out the net, into the boat, into Schawee's freezer, into the pot and in ma belly!
Courtesy of Louisiana marsh, pre BP, I hope! :shock:
They was sure good nonetheless and Schawee can cook up a mess of 'em real good now!
Next time I'm bringin' my own sack of onions!
Man that Schawee can eat some corn, yeah! :-D
...JP
Well, I got Fred's brother Sam here and he's tellin' me that was Fred...poor thing is cryin' all over. Ya know way back when shrimp only came from Florida they called 'em "jumbos" wasn't 'til they found 'em in Louisiana that they started calling 'em "shrimp" :-D
Scott
Yeah, they call those "pink" shrimp Florida shrimp. The ones we usually avoid, unless there ain't nothing else to eat. ;)
...JP
Now where did ya'll find those "plates"? I hope you didn't take them from the buffet? And are we going to see the gator trip on video?
Them plates are everywhere down here in cajun country, great for throwing whatever you boiled right on 'em.
I'm going to video the alligator hunt if Schawee says its OK.
He said show up and bring my ice chest.
Can't wait!
I wanna tree shaka!
...JP
scott you wish you had shrimp like that in florda :-D.those shrimp were caught in the bay in front of my camp in grand isle.them florda shrimp that come down here ,we call them seabobs.allen i will let jp video the gator hunt,and i will make sure he get a tree shaka :evil: ...schawee
Man, we got dat white shrimp, dat pink shrimp. and we got us a spiney crawfish that weighs over a pound! The only thing we don't have over LA is the good cooks and the GOOD people.
Scott
Guess I'm gonna have to do a shrimpin' video next time I go. I've just gotta get me a new net. That's easy though, anyplace that has a basketball court has a net :lau:
Scott
spiney crawfish that weighs over a pound!
Send some our way!
Maybe some at Bud3s?
...JP
That was fun seeing you both eat and bicker, eat and bicker.
By the way, Schawee must be doing pretty good stuffing those alligators, since he has such a lovely home, with a pool.
Love these videos guys, keep up the fun and sharing.
Schawee got a pretty nice house Annette. He say the other one burnt down right in the same spot, not too long ago.
He can tell that story.
Man, I sure am excited about our alligator hunt. We gonna set the lines this Monday coming. Gonna check 'em on Tuesday.
I wanna tree shaka!
...JP
What is a tree shaka??
annette, a tree shaka is when you tie a alligator line to a small tree or branch and when you get a gator he pull the tree or branch up and down.that's called a tree shaka.the bigger the gator the more it shakes. ...schawee
So Schawee, when will we get to see you on the History Channel's Swamp People show?
