Paddle Board anyone?

tried SUP today with Candlewood SUP.
Katie, Josh and myself. Perfect morning for a first attempt.

Let's get caught up - last week NOLA

I was in New Orleans last week for the Readsoft conference. The conference was held at the Inter-Continental hotel. Dinner the night of arrival was at Bourbon House New Orleans on Bourbon Street (of course). Good meal, great dessert was had by John who I traveled with...Chocolate Pecan Crunch which is.... dark chocolate mousse, pecan brittle crunch, salted caramel .

Wednesday, up earlier to try to beat the heat and humidity (no luck there) and a walk over Cafe Du Monde.

Beignets!

Cafe Beignet on Thursday morning.  Second place finish.

Thursday evening I was in search of music and wound up on Frenchmen Street. Cafe Negril, Blue Nile Nightclub and the Spotted cat.

First stop was the Spotted Cat to catch a set from Miss Sophie Lee.

I did drop back into the SPotted Cat later in the evening to carch the Smoking Time Jazz Club.

My favorite group for the evening was Soul Project at the Negril.
