I'll look for firewood. The above was in an email from a Guzzi rider, so it's being shared. No translation needed.

Louis and the Red Headed Lady for a late lunch in Mandeville, today, Friday, with lots of kids in attendance. Welcome to join. I found some sources for firewood. How much you need?

I've lost all authority and the ability to make choices here on the traveling 3 penny opera. It's 1:10 and we'll be there when we load up and get there. Cell31462zero421five
and you are still welcome to parade watch, @ 6 when the roads close, park at 160 Beau Rivage and walk out to the route.

Now overfed from Louie, worked up a sweat at the North Shore Nature Trail, ogling turtles & a single gator. It's 4:30 and the parade starts ar 7. We're at 3010 Hwy 59 for the next hour & a half before moving the roadshow to Beau Rivage.

I lost all authority over my life at "hello."

Well, now we are heading to the $tarbuck$ at 190 near Kmart and Michaels the start of the parade route. Have an amusing time. After today I'm staying locked in the hotel room to work on a proposal due Wednesday. And only having fun under duress.

Well, my phone doesn't tell me much. We were across the way. It was a chick parade. I like the Pink Ladies Roller Derby group on skates. Lotta marching bands that sounded great, including a Marine band coming through first. A St. Tammany Parish family do, not the Babylonian spectacle that happens next week on the other side of the lake in New Orleans proper. Okay, a couple of transvestites tossed extra beads my way . . .

We went back to the parsonage and quaffed cold Abita Mardi Gras Bock, eating Zappa's Voodoo Gumbo Ltd. Edition Potato Chips.

Today's word is lagniappe, pronounced lan-yap. It's the extra tradespeople and merchants give their customers in the relaxed atmoshpere. Like when you leave Louie and the Redhead Woman and they top off a go cup with sweet tea for the road.

We are around 'til Tuesday, Whatever, and plan to strike a pose at the Cafe du Monde sometime. It's our invite if you have time. And, if you are soon heading back to Cheeseland, we have a guest room at the other end of the house with it's own bath and laundry. You can hang out in the fenced back yard with my Mrs. (I call it Kate's Silver Cloud Lounge) and sample the wine, beer, and smoke what you like.

Alright kiddies, I know you have been patiently waiting... like I mentioned my camera died, then my cell phone died and I have yet to get the parade photos developed... it was a good time, except for the cops who wouldn't let me leave when I wanted to...

One of the Harley riding LEOs was pretty friendly when I told him my Buell was faster than his Harley (probably because he knew it was true)... I didn't say that to the one who had the Honda though...

Funny thing about the Pegasus... I did the park parade today... and we were lined up to go, when I turn around and there is this stuffed Pegasus on the ground looking at me... he wasn't there a few minutes before... so I captured him and he did the Fontainebluea sport lap with me !!!

Historic snippet for the day: From Baton Rouge to Pensacola was once The Republic of Western Florida, former Spanish territory.

Snippet #2, "Dixie" comes from French New Orleans, when the currency for trade was a Dix, ten franc note. Folk called them Dixies.

I bought a $20 plastic child's accordian and hope to have "When the Saints Go Marching In" down pat before we leave Tuesdee (local dialect). Sorry I didn't get a chance to embarrass you and everyone I'm hanging out with by giving a public performance here.

It was great not to meet you. Have a great time and take care of Piglet.
