Made it to New Orleans!

What a FUN weekend!  Here's a summary of Saturday...

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 30TH

The weekend started in Baton Rouge with my mom and two sisters.  We all had a wonderful lunch at Perkins Rowe and enjoyed the art show that was there this weekend...
Here's me and mom at lunch... doesn't she look great for almost 81 years old! 

And here she is with the street jester...

After lunch me and Susan headed to New Orleans to meet up with Brenda and Jake.  Well, some were calling it "The New Pittsburgh!"  I've never seen so many Steelers fans in my life!  New Orleans was overcome with them!  We were happy to see them spending their money in The Big Easy.  Brenda and Jake took an air boat ride this afternoon... they had a great time!  Susan and I were dressed for the occassion...

As we strolled down Bourbon Street, we passed a wedding party who were just married at the St. Louis Cathedral and were parading to their reception.  It looked like SO much fun!

It didn't take long in the Quarter for us to realize it was a CRAZY place.  I could NOT believe the number of girls who were baring their breasts for 29 cent beads!  Here's one...

Here's Brenda... you know what they say... big boobs, big beads...

Unfortunately, all I got were these beads... can you even see them?

As we headed to Pat O's it got crazier... here's a picture of the typical Halloween costume in the French Quarter...

Here we are in front of Pat O'Brien's...

This picture of Brenda sums it up... New Orleans really does smell awful...

That was our Saturday!  Time to rest up for the big game tomorrow... GEAUX SAINTS!

WHO DAT!
