Is that in Jackson Square? My BIL was stationed down that way for three yrs, they lived in Slidell, so my mom and I came down for a visit. Came across the lake every single day we were there to go to the French Quarter. Although my sis and I did go over to the Garden District one day and look at houses, plus kind of stalk Anne Rice's house. We just wanted to see it, but there was a limo and driver out front, so we hung around for awhile in case she was going to go somewhere and we could see her. No such luck!

Yes, Jackson Square... that is exactly where I grew up (not around - but in - it) and now have a license for but no time to go work...
As for Anne Rice's house... she's since moved to Metairie but yanno... she had the
nicest dogs. Drooly mastiffs on the porch (did you see them?)... they would come slobber on ya. I never did see her doll museum, but when I was in high school I used to love that orphanage building and wished I could buy it (when it was for sale - before she bought it).
Anyway, thanks guys
If you need me, I'll be here, like a spider under the stairs...
I Dont wish to venture past my two New Orleans threads for distinctly personal reasons.
Also... remember... I would LOVE to have ya Regina and anyone else considering the travel.
There are reasons I will do this, and reasons I really shouldn't... but it's partly the reasons I shouldn't and definately the reasons I should that are motivating me.
Make sense?
