With so many firsts for me in New Orleans this year, I don't want to forget the fonder memories along the way to our seventh year return to New Orleans. A day of Jazz Festing with Carol tops my list. I'm not an all day kind of Jazz Fest girl like Carol, but I hung in pretty well for a rookie.
This year, I'm back to some of my old routines...parking cars in my drive for friends, making groceries on foot, having a drink on the stoop with my neighbors, having an end of the day wine with friends in the back yard, and opening up every window and door to let the sun and the music shine in.
The crowds come bigger and earlier than I remember. But hey, a lot can happen in seven years. Happy Festing!
