THE JOURNEY TO SULPHUR SPRINGS, written by Germain Aubrey Sercouff, first of two born in New Iberia, Louisiana of Cajun ancestry. Almost all of my family came from France and Germany but have been living in Louisiana since it was first settled in the early seventeen hundreds.
Early in my life, my family moved to New Orleans where my sister, Elizabeth Francis is born when I am ten years old. Much of what I remember about my youth is that we lived in a crowded city. There were no forests or mountains to see, only concrete streets leading to the bridges crossing the canals and river.

When grown and after my tour in the US Navy, I decide to leave New Orleans in search of a simpler life but my search first take me to the forests and mountain that I have always yearned to see and experience. Soon, I find myself walking atop a mountain pathway, the one called the Appalachian Trail.
