Azaleas and Tiger and “BEAR”!

We spied all sorts of things during our recent trip to New Orleans. Here are just a few:

  • A house that could not be taken by tank.
  • A suggestive, nay, obscene football mural.
  • Wild turkeys, the kind that are birds.
  • Mike the Tiger, LSU’s mascot, whose head is so big.
  • An unhaunted plantation.
  • An amphibious transport dock ship.
  • Crawfish, beignets and cafe au lait.

I’ll add more as I think of them. (Plenty of inside jokes here.) Thanks to our friends in NOLA for a great time, as usual! Can’t wait for next year.

Every inch is filled with illustrative goodiness! I love how you handled the color, and concentrated on making the contrast pop. Very Successful!
