Then, Another Thing Happened in New Orleans.


Then, another thing happened.  That's the way every New Orleans story unfolds.  Another thing always happens in New Orleans.  Another thing happened in New Orleans, yada, yada, yada...

Every New Orleans day is part of a jumble.  Nobody can remember the exact order of events, it all happens so fast.  Every New Orleans day is full of shiny distractions and tempting diversions.

Every day in New Orleans is like living in a kaleidoscope.  It is impossible to keep track of everything----minutes overlap with memories.  The only people who have a predictable day in New Orleans are dead people.  New Orleans is that kind of a city.  New Orleans is full of life.  New Orleans is full of beautiful, vibrant, kinetic, inspired, hurky-jerky life.  

KNO-LNO: Know New Orleans---Love New Orleans.  

To know New Orleans is to love this wonderful city we call home.  More and more, KNO-LNO tattoos are being ordered in the tattoo parlors on Broad Avenue, Carrollton Avenue, Galvez Street, and everywhere in New Orleans East.  Know New Orleans---Love New Orleans.  New Orleans loves you.  KNO-LNO.

Everyone who knows New Orleans well speaks the same language.  It is a language of love.  Everyone who loves New Orleans has something in common with everyone else who loves New Orleans.  New Orleans is an easy city to love.  The more you get to know it, the more you will love New Orleans.  Then, another thing happened in New Orleans....

I know you want to know what it was that happened, but, I can't tell you now.  It is a tale best shared in person over chicory coffee.

Good memories are made in New Orleans every day.  The best New Orleans memories begin every morning at La Belle Esplanade.

Then, another thing happened in New Orleans, today.  The Roman Candy Cart came down Esplanade Avenue.  It was like Easter in January.  You should have been here.
