Mardi Gras in Nola!

​I Love the Colors of Mardi Gras!


Who doesn't love a little purple, green and gold?
Picture
Beth didn't let me out of the camera bag, when we went to the parades. Those flying beads are dangerous! But I had fun with them later.

Baby Rescue

After playing in the beads, I met a friend.

I spotted the little baby in the King Cake! I had to help my friend climb out of the sugary treat and then we played.

​I love celebrations!

Merry New Year!

Welcome 2020!
​

Today is the start of a new year!
Picture
I'm ready for some new adventures! I'm also ready to enjoy my new musician friends.  

2019?

I guess I'm supposed to reflect on the past year, as I move into this new one. But, that would take so long...​

Picture
Let me just say, the year was good and December was nice. I had a good Christmas. We spent it in New Orleans and Beth decorated the hotel room with a tiny Cajun Nativity Set. She read Cajun Night Before Christmas.

"Petit Ours"

I got to join in. I didn't have a French name-tag like the others, but Beth called me Petit Ours. I think that's French for Little Bear. I felt rather LARGE for a change.

2019 ended nicely. Now I'm ready for 2020!

​Happy New Year!

Thanksgiving in NOLA

Where Am I?
​

Well, I'm back in Texas now, but I was in New Orleans.  I went for Thanksgiving, not Mardi Gras. 
Picture

In this picture I'm far away from the French Quarter. I'm not posing with beads or parade confetti. I'm sitting on top of a cypress knee!

Audubon Park
​

Picture

It's hard to see me, but I'm in this photo.  I love cypress trees and I love these wonderful  knees, that grow up around them!  I had the perfect spot for watching the ducks in the water and the people strolling by in the park.  What a great place to be in the afternoon on Thanksgiving!

Road Trip...starting in Louisana

3/28/2012

First stop, Louisiana!
​

Picture

It's hard to decide what to do when you only have 1 day in Louisiana.  Visiting the French Quarter would have been first on my list.  But I did that a year and a half ago.  That was when Beth was still posing me in cute scenes like this... with the St. Louis Cathedral.

On the Railing
​

At least there weren't too many people around!
Picture

It was dusk after a drizzly day, or it would have been more crowded in the French Quarter.  At least Beth is pretty quick when she poses me.  I didn't sit long on this curved piece of railing.

​What else do you do in Louisiana?
Picture

Eat, of course! But there was no time on this road trip for crawfish boils!  This was actually a year ago in Lafayette.
Those spices sting right through my fur anyway.
​

So what did I chose for adventure?
​

Picture

I thought about a visit to one of the old cemeteries, but lots of people do that.  Instead I took a peek at the old 6 Flags which hasn't reopened since  Hurricane Katrina. It was about 10 times creepier wandering around those old carnival rides than gravestones.
Off to the Ferris Wheel
​

Picture


​Up Close


Once I go up close, things didn't look so good. But I found a place to sit.
 
Picture

There was some ugly graffiti and and the Ferris wheel wasn't moving. But, it was still fun.

Braver than Beth
​
I didn't exactly see Beth climbing into one of these things. I'd say I was pretty brave to climb on board, not far from the spray painted word, "Destiny".
Picture




This adventure rates pretty high on my list!

    Little Bear
    ​

    My mom gave me this tiny bear many decades ago... because  I like small things. 

    Some years back, I used
    him in an assignment for a photo club and I got hooked.  This little guy is a great excuse to play.  He fits in my camera bag, so he's always at the ready for a photo shoot.  He's been to a lot of places and he's had a few close calls, with fire, rivers, champagne, wild animals... the scariest of all was when he was lost in New York and returned to me weeks later.  

    I started the blog for Little Bear in 2012, but he got tired of my blogging style, very quickly. He has been writing his own blog for years.
