Last night, I got into New Orleans, and got to meet up with some NYC pals! Mary and I met for a drink, a walk through the French Quarter and to complete a secret mission. We then went to check out my friend Johnny's bar, Bar Mon Cher, that he owns with his beautiful new wife Jeanette. One of Johnny's childhood friends, Michael, from Queens, was also there, so it was a nice little taste of New York to light my fire to get home to Brooklyn.
There aren't a lot of photos from today, or a lot of miles covered, but man was it a beautiful drive. Mississippi and Alabama were my first two 'drive through' states, and I wish I could have spent more time checking them out. I got a late start today, because I actually got to sleep in a little, and I decided to wander around Bourbon Street a little this morning. Once I got on the road, I had a grin from ear to ear for all the mile that did get covered. I got to spend 2 amazing days with my greatest love, and I got some good time in with Mary, who always makes me laugh and has amazing stories to tell. I'm starting to get anxious to get back to Brooklyn, and see all my people again and get back in the shop...if they still want me!
