Mardi Gras (it's a good thing)
Thanks to everyone who came to town to help New Orleans celebrate Mardi Gras. We've been through so much grief that this reunion has had a very healing effect. Debra and I booked a room in the Monteleone Hotel on Royal Street in the French Quarter for five nights. We arrived on Friday night and gave the room to our kids for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
Since we most probably won't get to take a vacation for a while, this holiday served as a getaway as well as allowed us to give something back to a city we love dearly. Brunch at Court of Two Sisters on Saturday and a day of shopping. Brunch at the Marigny Brasserie on Sunday with the Pfister Sisters for 4 hours was a great treat.
Come when you can and spend some money to help bring this beautiful city back.
