KPLC article

LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - Every now and then, you discover something so unique that you just have to share it. That’s the case for one Lake Charles couple whose recent discovery connects them all the way to the United Kingdom. Last week, Dale Hoffpauir was out making deliveries in Cameron Parish when he says as he passed through Holly Beach and Johnson Bayou, he noticed a piece of driftwood. “So, I said well I’ll come back and get it after I make my deliveries. So, I came back picked a piece of driftwood up,” Dale said. That’s when he discovered a glass bottle with a message in it.


quote:

I could see a little diagram and stuff, I was like wow that’s pretty cool, so I picked it up and it had barnacles and stuff like that, so I pulled all of them off and stuck it in the truck, and I said well I’ll get to it when I get home in the afternoon,” Dale said. In the bottle was two papers. One was a drawing of a boat. The other was a letter written by the Hardy family. The letter explains that the Hardy family is heading home after spending 12 months aboard, sailing from the U.K. to the Balearic Islands. “This bottle was tossed overside in Cabo Roca Portugal near Cascais. Please let us know how far it travels, and he lists his email and then his home address, and it just says thanks the Hardy family,” Dale said.
