NOLA

i was wrapped around the axle from finishing my thesis (nightmare), so i treated myself to a short trip with friends to new orleans jazzfest
 
jazzfest concert-goers use homemade flags to designate their location in the crowd
 this pilot said he was going to write a positive message in the sky every day
oldest pub in the states, the mules from carts stick their heads in the windows now and then 
my chicken-and-waffles waffle came from here
 fundraising by the local nofd
 my friend jon's friend's bar, claire's pourhouse
 these little ferns popped out of every crack
 flood victim, still tickin'
 post no bills
 spontaneous parade
 night shows were even more fun than festival shows - this was rockin' bowl, you bowl and get live music, what could be better?
 bowling with the crew
the tall things in the yard are decorated heads 
 lenny kravitz. yeah, lenny. i love you lenny. especially when you rock with trombone shorty
fab sculpture at the city park
beads, beads, everywhere
 at the howlin' wolf, this guy was amazing
 rock n' bowl powers, unite!
 house of blues, my favorite show, and run DMC
 hi lenny, i still love you, this shows his view of the crowd
 at tipatios
i met some great people from seattle
