Carnival season is gearing up here in New Orleans. Saturday was a nice party with a small street parade around upper Carrollton-- my first playing a parade this season.

Meanwhile, later this week is the 4th Tulane Maya Symposium, 1-4 February, New Orleans, 4 Days of Pre-Columbian Maya scholarly goodness, with the theme "Murals and Painted Texts by Maya Ah Tz'ibob", including a keynote address by Dr. Karl Taube.

I hope to make at least some of it on Friday. But Saturday, I will miss it, as there is a schedual conflict with one of my favorite events:

The Krewe du Vieux parade. This year's theme "Habitat for Insanity".

I'll have to wear one of my crowns to the parade, then. Wish I were there...but I will be, in just a few hours. :)

Enjoy the symposium.

I'll see you at home when I come back...sans cold.

Glad you are coming back from the pagent with a new crown! :-)

Hope you're feeling better soon-- and you're able to catch K du V. Let's hope the weather is good Saturday evening/night.

Wish I could attend the symposium, but we're going to New Orleans next month for a cousin-in-law's wedding. Maybe next year.

How familiar are you with the city? Nice collections of artifacts not only at New Orleans Museum of Art, but also on the 4th floor of Dinwiddie Hall on the Tulane campus.

Thanks -- I'll have to look those up. I've only been to the city twice, but the husband has been there several times with fellow LSU alums that used to live there. May have to take an extra day to view the artifacts.

We'll probably be at Molly's again this year, with a couple converts. Maybe we will see you!
