The weather predictors promised thunderstorms this afternoon and evening, but fortunately, upon checking the radar, I saw that I had a window of opportunity for a nice bike ride this evening. The rain is pouring down as I write this, but it was warm and muggy and perfect when I headed out. I took Jack, and went clipless, because I’ve got to get over the little niggling fear I have of being stuck to my bike. Continue reading

Bicycle Michael’s on Frenchman Street
Today was positive beautiful, sunny and warm, but not too warm, and I decided to make today the day to take the plunge and get myself a road bike. Don’t get me wrong–Rhoda is wonderful. Continue reading
Rat Poison at the Magazine Street Breaux Mart
Today wasn’t much for bike riding, to tell you the truth. I need to outfit the girl with enough baskets to carry home sixty student projects. Or stop assigning student projects. Regardless, I did get a chance to ride my bike to the bar to throw some darts with my good buddy N. Continue reading
Brad & Dellwen Flag-Party-Gift Shop on Magazine
So I got back on the bike today. My injuries are mostly mental, so I knew I had to just get back on and ride. I rode down Magazine to Juan’s Flying Burrito for lunch with my crosswords. Continue reading
T-shirt Shop on Bourbon Street
I rode my bike down to the Quarter tonight, hoping to see some Saints fans getting their party on after a nice win this afternoon.

Borders on St. Charles, Redux
Today the signs are up. Borders is getting closer and closer to opening up at the corner of Louisiana and St. Charles. I wrote an entry about this back in June when the building was still more facade than anything, but now it’s starting to look like it’s actually going to open. Continue reading
Future Trump Condos in the CBD
I was itching to ride my bike today in the lovely weather–overcast and a touch windy, humid and thick–and decided to head down to the CBD to run an errand or two. Continue reading
Borders on St. Charles
I rode my bike down to a new coffee shop in the Marigny this afternoon. On my way I passed this construction site on St. Charles and, I think, Louisiana. Continue reading
Making Movies in New Orleans
I rode my bike to the Uptown Zotz cafe today as I continue my project to photo document all the coffee shops in New Orleans. As I rode by Tulane’s main entrance on St. Charles, I saw these many trucks, lined up, blocking the extra space that I usually use when riding up this busy street. Continue reading
