New Year, New Series.

Hello Junkies! This new year is starting off with a new series, Doors.


Every time I pass a door, I have to stop and look. "What's back there?" is often my wonder, followed by a quick story that I conjure in my own mind. What do these doors say to you?

I still have miles of backlog to get through. Be on the look out for more treats. Until then, see ya on the road.

The Quarter

Hello fellow Junkies. Today I'm sitting in a hotel room in Atlanta GA. I realize it's been a while since I promised you the French Quarter of New Orleans, but life these days has a way of running away from me. Not to worry, that means more shots for you later. And believe you me, I have some gems.

But first, as promised, some choice snaps from The Quarter-

























I'm saving some other hidden treasures for later. This wont be the last you'll see of New Orleans, that's for sure. I'm not sure what you'll get next, but I'll be back home in a few days. After a quick rest at home I'll be going back north to Oregon again and staying for a bit. Don't worry, you'll get another post out of me before I run off again. Until then, see ya on the road.

A Cup of Coffee From The Past

Getting back to coffee basics. You can't go to New Orleans and miss eating at Cafe Du Monde. The coffee is to die for, the beignets amazing and like nothing else on earth. I was sure to stop here first for breakfast before I explored the French Quarter-






This was the view outside from my table


a small coffee and 3 beignets is under $5





Next up, the French Quarter.

a Welcome Back Mash-up

So I've been home for just about a week. I'm still in the process of getting all my photos in line and trying not to neglect my backlog too badly. So today you get some of this, and some of that, and some of that over there.
