Dinner & some real JAZZ

Our Evening

This is Bourbon street. 

We avoided this street at Night.

Not the crowd I'm comfortable with.

 After dinner we stepped back into time as we entered Preservation Hall.

along with about 100 people crammed into this tiny room...

* Pure Jazz for an hour *

So worth it! 

Pics were not allowed once the performers came out...

Caroline treated us to a lovely French Dinner at the Two Sisters Restaurant...

We ate outside in the totally magical patio! 

New Orlean - The French Quarter

Girl Trip!

My LOUISANA friend Jaime has been wanting me to see for the past 6 years the French Quarter!

We finally did it!

Caroline, Jaime and I drove the 5.5 hours from Houston to New Orleans.

This is the street our Bed & Breakfast was in. 

Right smack in the French Quarter.

We parked the car in a parking garage and walked for the next 2 1/2 days we were there. 

We did take a 3h Historical Bike tour! :)

 Bourbon Street crossroads. 

For us only to be walked through during the day.

It's like a different place at night that we had no interest in going to!

The house next door...

Stop with the fake flowers!

Our little Bed & Breakfast! 

OLD OLD OLD

It was almost like being in Europe!

Where I sat and ate breakfast in the glorious mornings there...

Our little apartment was up these stairs!

The weather was P E R F E C T !

Best time to go is March thru May.

I can't imagine being there in the Summer!

Lovely Ferns and MaidenHair were growing on the side bricks! 

Like a little fairy world...

Enchanted Rock

This spring, we decided to go camping along with the scouts from our ward to Enchanted Rock.

We camped 2 nights.

we got there Thursday at night and put up our tents in the dark...

Mike had gone before with Emric a few years ago.

We had the P E R F E C T weather!

It was beautiful, I will let the pictures speak for themselves...

Our Prickly Camp Grounds & Stunning mornings

 Our prickly camp grounds.

Watch where you step!

We had to pull out quite a few cactus needles from Chloe's paws... 

But she was delighted to be with us!

Her first night in the tent, she was a little nervous, but settled down just fine...

 The mornings were divine...
