Taking the high road

High view of the city
Not much of a commute this morning -- a lot of people taking off for the holidays. This is the view a few days back of the Crescent City Connection -- alway jammed with traffic in the morning bringing commuters from the West Bank of New Orleans to the East Bank.

The bridge gives a great view of the river as well as sunsets and sunrises. The view is also spectacular of the skyline as you drop down into the City of New Orleans.

Lagniappe ( a little something extra )

Peace and warm lights. Snow, for sure, but not the messy kind. No traffic. No snarling faces. No fences. No jails. No crime. No run down buildings -- they're all ideal, architecturally perfect.

What a lovely capture of your bridge!

I took a weekend trip to Nola at the beginning of November. It was really wonderful and everyone was as warm and friendly as ever. I did my duty by spending money. :)

Consider yourself lucky to be from New Orleans!

Nice photo of the bridge, Steve.

For us old folks, it is a weary time of year. So as it winds down may I wish you and your family a very happy and healthy holiday and a prosperous new year.

An early start, are some paddling under the dark light metal webs. Best wishes for the festive season.
The net is slow this am, I didn't see something extra, I hope it is a model as it sounds drastic, give me reality any day, well, most of the time!
