'twas a cold and snowy day

Perfect Mardi Gras weather, eh? And there was a very strange theme this year as can be seen by the pictures.






Is it the year of pork? Or the year of the rooster?

Ben hates stuff like this but he came with us anyway. Sam loves parades but this one was a bit more than he'd bargained for weatherwise. He'd get all excited when the floats came by and when they threw stuff to us but in between floats (and they were slow) he'd get all cold and whiny. We ended up leaving early. Somehow it was missing that Big Easy feel.

I'm sorry I missed the pigs, but I am still glad I stayed inside, all toasty warm.

From the sounds of it, "The Big Easy" was missing the "Big Easy Feel" too.

But...happy Fat Tuesday from your favorite Southerner!
