The Big Easy

We head to New Orleans tomorrow for a few days. Pleep is very excited about hitting the Big Easy. The first thing he did was to don his Mardi Gras beads and start planning - a quick pass on Bourbon Street, a few galleries on Rue Royale, Cafe Du Monde for beignets and coffee, a little jazz, plus dinners at great restaurants. We have reservations at K-Pauls for one night. It's one place we've never been and it is still getting great reviews.

Right in the middle of planning and packing, the french drain project started in the front lawn. After the driveway was finished, we still had an issue with water draining properly. So, the crew started in this morning to install a french drain that will allow everything to run down the hill next to the house. Pleep went out to inspect because he thought maybe knowing how french drains worked would be a big help in his visit to New Orleans' French Quarter. He thought french drains had something to do with drinking wine in French areas.
