Today is my 200th blog post. That’s a lot of writing, and a lot of riding, my bike around, every day. Today’s ride took me through so many different parts of New Orleans. Continue reading
Twilight Sky at Dauphine and Bienville
I’ve been itching to ride Jack around these past few days and finally had time tonight to velcro on my bike shoes and tool around for a bit. I rode to meet some friends for dinner, and I found myself racing my friend’s car for part of the way. Continue reading
Rain at St. Charles and Milan
Yeah, summer in New Orleans means water, lots and lots of water. The air is thick with it almost all the time, and the skies can open up at any time and let down a torrent. Continue reading
New Orleans’ Original Downtown Quiznos Sub at Baronne and Union
It was another hot day for biking, but the afternoon ride ended at R.’s delightful 50th birthday party at a pool. I was hot and sweaty when I got there, and the heated pool was not quite as refreshing as I’d hoped, but the party was lots of fun and the birthday girl looked amazing. Continue reading
The Moon From Euterpe and St. Charles
My knee was feeling so, so much better this evening, I think because of yoga. My body may have just needed a streeetching out. So when friends called to go dancing in Mid-City, I happily hopped on Rhoda and headed out. Continue reading
Bike Route at Coliseum and Antonine
I’ve been taking some time off the bike to give my poor knees a rest, so today’s ride just took me to the hair salon and back. On my return, I stopped to snap this photo of the Bike Route sign on Coliseum and Antonine. Continue reading
Empty Wall on Decatur at Esplanade
I took Jack to the bike shoppe today for her first check up–she’s growing up so fast! On my walk to the coffee shop to wait for Jack’s return I snapped a picture of this wall that clearly used to advertise all kinds of things, but has recently been cleaned off. Continue reading
Lining Up For Ice Cream at the Creole Creamery
Though I haven’t blogged in a few days, I have been on my bicycle. Yesterday I rode to Jazz Fest, and then later to a bar in the Bywater for more music. I took so many fantastic pictures of the jazztastic festival that I wanted to share, but by the time I got home, I was toast. Continue reading
House at Constance and Pleasant
It wasn’t much of a day for bike riding for me. I was just so, so tired today, and I think my legs were begging for a bit of a break. So I gave it to them, mostly, and just took the bike out to run a few errands. On my way back from the post box and to the grocery, I stopped to snap a picture of this house at the corner of Constance and Pleasant. Continue reading
Gal Holiday and the Honky Tonk Revue at Mimi’s in the Marigny
I love to dance. No, I really, really love to dance. If you know me, you know I’m telling the truth. So when M. put out the call to meet at the bar for Gal Holiday and the Honky Tonk Revue, I was in. Continue reading
