Ode to New Orleans...


I went down to New Orleans for four days of work, fun, and food. Instead, I walked away with a huge love affair for a city that helped me rediscover passion, inner peace, newfound friendships, and the realization that I had the answers to my questions all along.  My heart is full.  In the immortal words of Hermann Hesse, "If I know what love is, it is because of you".  The culture and mystery of New Orleans were a great inspiration to me and have made my 2011 journey that much sweeter....









My new Françoise Gilot piece that I purchased.  It reminded me of this magical night, so I had to have it!

  1. Great photos. New Orleans can change a night, a week, a life. Now I'm wondering how long before I can get back there myself.

  2. It had been 13 or 14 years since my last NOLA visit. I am not letting a decade pass next time!

  3. I moved to New Orleans (kicking and screaming) in 2008 because of work. When they asked me to move back to Houston, I left kicking and screaming. NOLA is an amazing place with wonderful people and an amazing history. I loved looking at your pictures - they really make me miss it even more! I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as I did :)
