Traveller..................

Do you know the song "The Traveller" by Chris Stapleton?


The words to this song is the way I feel!  We have been travelling lately...........WHY?

We spent several days in New Orleans--traveled there so we could see and hear the above man--along with the King of Country--George Strait!

We stayed in hotel on Canal Street near the Mississippi- River-the view from
our corner room was fabulous--we could see the river, the great chicken bridge,
people walking along the streets below, hear the calilpore from the steamboat, 
watch the rain clouds move in and out as we viewed
barges being pushed into dock.


We had fireworks over the river one night in celebration of the birth of New Orleans--
300 years old!  We heard many jazz songs as we walked the streets and
saw sights we want to scrub from our mind.
The handmade ceramic oyster dishes in Royal street shop window--
lovely!  A visit to Central Grocery for that famous olive salad
for our Muffuletta sandwiches.  

This is not our first visit to New Orleans--we lived in Baton Rouge for 20 years
so made many trips to New Orleans.  

The concert was excellent!  That is a good reasons to travel!

So, we are travelling on to our next spot for the summer--see you down
the road.
Happy travelling!

Beginnings of New Year Ideas

I'm already thinking about the new year and new beginnings--2024 was a lost year as far as new quilt starts--there was not a one began. ...
