What a city! I loved it! Of course, it didn't hurt that I was staying with a friend who happens to live right above Millennium Park. Check out the view:

I just spent 2 weeks in New Orleans working on a project (which I am not ready to share yet) and happened to arrive the night before Mardi Gras. So I just wandered the streets of the Marigny and the French Quarter on Fat Tuesday, with my camera. For all the Mardi Gras I have been to, 2009 was one of the best ones in a lot of ways: the weather was beautiful, people just content to walk up and down the streets showing off their costumes, and I didn't see anything I didn't care to see (those of you who have been to the French Quarter for Mardi Gras will know what I am talking about...).
Not mine, though, this one is my last virtual creation (yeap, I'm a webmaster. Sounds so pompous...). It's watercolor/oil painter Connie Scherr's (picture). Check it out: ConnieScherr.com. Pretty cool, huh? Wanna see more websites? Click here.
