thank the gods
After a staggeringly exhausting time in Houston (family) and then coming to Louisiana where the chowder-heads rule the streets, spent another day at muddy dodge-from-the-rain fest, we finally found a few things that just made this trip a whole lot better:
- Cheeseburgers and a brewery
- A 24-hour diner (Deja Vu) that serves food (actual food - not fancy, overpriced, or unpronounceable) populated with real people a mere two blocks from our hotel
- A server (Jeff) who brought us breakfast, took a quick look and said "you're here for the fest, right? Having trouble finding a place for people like us? Let me show you the way." And he gave us a map. And told us where to party later where the overwhelming chowderhead population is not.
Thank all your gods or whatever. We have an in.
Whew.
