All For A Mardi Gras Day

Crazy subscription pushes and auto publishing glitches on SG only added to the havoc that was the last week. Snowmaggedon blew all hopes of flying to New Orleans, so we took the opportunity to road trip.

Pull the Tail, Suck the Head. This batch of crawfish were a bit small due to the freeze.

In the last week, we have:

• Driven 2,176 miles from DC to Chattanooga to New Orleans and back in 5 days.
• Passed 256 floats across 9 parades under the oaks of St. Charles Avenue
• Consumed 72+ "21 and over" beverages across 3 days (with friends of course)
  
• Enjoyed a 3 hour dinner at Emeril's Delmonico for 14 people from 5 states (TN, DC, FL, TX, LA)
• Saw 2 casts: The Real World New Orleans and The Hot Tub during the Krewe of Tucks
  

And...

• 1 Super Bowl MVP reign as monarch all the while showering his adoring subjects with black and gold footballs.

Pigs may have flown and hell (and DC) frozen over, but there was no way I was missing Mardi Gras 2010. Until March 8, 2011:

The koozie on a neck straps keeps your hands free to catch throws as floats pass.
