Hey yo, NOLA friends - if you're like me (and you know you are) and love a well-told tale of true history, this is the only place you should be on Wednesday evening.

All of the houses outside of the flood protection system are elevated. Like, really elevated. 🌊

Pretty, swampy little bayou

It's the end of the world as we know it

For a little change of pace, I bring you a different "end of the world" from my excursion down to Shell Beach and Delacroix last weekend. 🐊

At a time when things look pretty bleak, there's this small ray of light...
