I’ve been in absentia largely due to a stupid asthma attack which has lingered the past two weeks. There was also a pretty impressive case of hives one night, too. But I’m not letting that keep me down. We went out with friends last night and we are getting ready to paint the town tonight….

New Orleans Pictures

It was a whirlwind of a trip. Yeah, I know, ten days sounds like a long trip but it went by in a flash of friends, food and frolic. I didn’t even take very many pictures this time but here are some of them: I had been craving raw oysters since my trip with Roz…

It’s a Wonderful Life

December 14, 2011 By Deanna Piercy Leave a Comment
