It was another seventy degree day in New Orleans, and I got up early enough to get a nice long ride in before my night class. Jack and I rode out Elysian Fields, because Googlemaps said there’d be an amusement park at the end. Continue reading
New Orleans
Annunciation Center Park at Race Street
The weather in New Orleans this week has been positively sick. I mean, check out the sky in this picture. Yep, that’s the color of the sky in late May in New Orleans. I took Jack out for a short ride this afternoon after a positively lovely day writing, reading, swimming, and yoga. Continue reading
Glass at Jefferson and Garfield
The weather here is crazy. It was actually kind of cold today. Or at least, it feels cold to me when it’s below seventy degrees. I felt the chill while riding home, via a bar–this is New Orleans, after all–for a quick drink, from my night class. Continue reading
House and Lot at Thalia and Camp
I haven’t blogged in a few days, but not because I haven’t been riding around, but because I’ve been out riding so late. By the time I’ve gotten home, I’ve been too tired to write. Continue reading
Sky Above Lake Pontchartrain
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

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
