Be careful walking on the sidewalks!

 I quit going a few years ago. To much walking after I injured my leg. I’ve done it more times than I can count. Been there done it did it. I enjoy watching it on TV now. Don’t have to walk anywhere.but the fridge and the bathroom and snuggle with my dobies. I don’t catch throws and when I do, I give them to the kids that are right there. Riders will point at me and the kids around my group and throw them to me to give it to them. It’s good to be tall and have very long arms. What I miss the most now are the high school marching bands. Incredible performers at such a young age.

Missing bricks everywhere. Holes where other things used to be. Bricks sticking up.... 

I wish they had some stats on how many people sprain ankles, twist knees, fall down and get trampled on while other drunks trip over them.

My concern were the terrorists driving their cars on the sidewalk trying to run people over.

 The weather is going to be excellent and that means the crowds are going to be huge. When I used to ride in the super crew of Endymion and we had great weather, they estimated  that the crowds had four hundred thousand plus on the parade route. A few of  the factors were helicopter videos, the amount of trash they cleaned up right after the parade, and a few other factors.

 It’s getting crazy already. Hotel occupancy is at 95%. And that’s not just Orleans Parish, it’s also the surrounding areas. Love it. Who doesn’t want to experience it at least once. And Katy big cans Perry is playing at the Endymion exrtravaganza this year. People are going crazy trying to get tickets for this event. It’s like a prom for rich people. Have to wear a tux for men and the wemens have to wear a ball gown. If you ride, we get to our costumes.
