The Crazy Season Begins

It's Carnival in New Orleans again. Mardi Gras is early this year, but the weather was beautiful this last weekend.

I'll admit I don't go to parades much these days, and the traffic hassles can be a pain, but I still enjoy Mardi Gras. It's one of the things that makes this city so much fun and helps give it such a unique flavor. There's just nothing quite like it. Which is probably a good thing....
