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".
