<div dir="ltr">Jimm,<div><br></div><div>Marksville is in about the middle of Louisiana - it's where the Biloxis ended up, with the Tunicas and Ofos, after being forced west from Mississippi. The nearest largest airport would be New Orleans, about 2.5 hours away, while smaller airports would be in Baton Rouge and Shreveport. I have not actually driven down there yet, but from northern Oklahoma it's about a 10-hour drive. I'd probably stay in Dallas or so overnight on the way down from here if I'm driving. Not sure if Marksville has a commercial airport, but I can find out. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Food for thought: I don't know how everyone feels about day trips, but the big archaeology site of Poverty Point would only be a couple hours away from Marksville and would easily make a day trip. I haven't seen it yet myself. It dates back to ca. 1500 BCE. (I talk about it in my dissertation.)</div>
<div><br></div><div>I will not be able to talk to John Barbry until next week - I am headed to Council Grove, KS tomorrow for the weekend for the Washunga Days Pow-Wow with the Kaw Nation and will not return until Sunday. Will be busy with the Pow-Wow until then.</div>

<div>That should be a fun place for the SACC (or SCLC?). We've never had the
conference there. I hope to be there, too. Thanks for spearheading this,
Dave.</div>

<div>Hi all,<br><br></div>Just to let you all know that I got confirmation
that John Barbry, who is the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe's coordinator of language and
culture, is prepared to work with me in preparing for next year's conference
in Marksville, Louisiana. (We still have to firm up a date.) They
are looking forward to working with me/us. I have his contact info and
will give him a call soon to get things rolling. But wanted to let y'all
know that Louisiana is ready and willing to host us!
