Here's Bri training high school students purusing their GED and training...Bri has made walking maps for them to go through the neighborhood and survey housing conditions as part of a job training program, so they will have skills to use in the workforce.
We went camping here in Mississippi--I never knew riverbeds were so sandy!
Mardi Gras parades have started for the past few weekends. We went to see the Carnival Krewe parade....parades will then start this Thursday and go through, with several a day until Fat Tuesday.
Traditionally, parades all had men krewes. They all have to wear masks so you can't see their faces... (you still have to be mega loaded and pay to be on floats and have connections to throw beads). After the parades, there are balls for those on the floats to go to.
Barkus was today---a parade of dogs dressed up ....the theme was Batman.
Awkward picture of us....but at least you can see our beads!
Yummy artichoke for dinner....it's prepared here with bread crumbs, cheese, garlic..yum!
Bri and I hit up an awesome Spanish restaurant to celebrate an early Valentine's Day. We had paella and sangria which was soooooooooo good...
