LOLOL! Well, if you aren't from the state, maybe you don't know where Morgan City is. My mama worked for a man who made his money in oil.

Cafe Du Monde at 4 am. Chickory coffee, beignets, fresh wet streets, and the sound of a distant saxaphone. I love New Orleans!!

One of my best memories of Nawlins was walking the river front with some friends. It was late...1 am maybe? There was a street musician (yep, a sax player) and we tipped him for the sound he was giving. He finished and then winked at us as he swung into "Misty." The four of us danced in that way you do when you know anyone is watching but you just can't care. Lovely.

Name the date! I'll be there.

Great story Arwen!! There is definitely something about New Orleans after midnight. It is almost like the night becomes thicker in spirit and character.

Mama and Pa (my step daddy) made the most potent Muscadine wine. The first time I had it...it tasted just like grape juice.

Until you stood up. Oh boy. My mama laughed her butt of at me that night!

You are so right. I miss that place. Luckily I'm only about an 8 or 9 hour drive. I plan on going for a weekend next year.

I used to live next door to a family with a fig tree...well one door down anyway. That tree was GREAT for hiding in!
