Pictures of the Six of us in N'Awlins
Look at Jeff's folding skill. He makes me want to be a better folder

Picturesque Louisiana Swamp Lands!
This is a "Coonass Castle". Coonass=Cajun. Which, as best I can figure = Redneck.
It's a Racoon in the swamp, which was definitively the most exciting thing on the trip.
These are Nutria, a.k.a. Swamp Rats.
It's an alligator, barely three feet long.

Too bad we couldn't find Anne Rice's House

Pictures from the French Quarter
Censored for family entertainment
Wierdo in the street would like to read your palms... or kill your family, I didn't ask.
This guy made robot noises while moving.
The guy in the right of this picture was yelling stuff like "Satan Loves You. Satan is Your Friend." while wearing devils horns. I love irony.
This is the Naked Cowboy. It would have been more novel if we hadn't seen him about 15 times during the weekend.
This lady sat there for a while painted purple... then it was time to get naked.
Parade on Canal Street on Saturday Afternoon.
These guys had a good schtick. We hung out near them for a while.
At Pat O'brien's These guys made everyone (even my waitress) run the gauntlet, apparently they were doing it for hours.
Why is there a statue of Winston Churchill in New Orleans? And why is Winston giving the American Flag the finger in the second picture?
Zulu Parade on Tuesday Morning.
People dressed up as the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory characters (Umpa Lumpas in back). Genius.

The Garden District Cemetary
Yes, I know, taking pictures is wrong.
