The big muddy
As we travel back up the Mississippi River corridor a few observations need to be made. Of course these are subjective but feel they need to be stated. The first observation has been our theme: the people on the river are happy to give. Next is this the new melting pot. From itasca to new orleans we we don't fight mosques or burn sacred religious texts. Dancing. Music. Food and fellowship is what we have seen.
Local flavor
This trip we have one rule. No flippin chains. From roadside bbq. Broiled alligator. Catfish bites. Deep fried pickles. Crawfish. Gumbo. Cajun flamed shrimp. And even an exxon roller dog.
Three best friends that anyone could have
What does Tyler dream of when he takes a little Tyler snooze. Does he dream of petting zebras or a little captain morgan too. Don't you worry your little tyler head. We're going to get you back to tanya and your cozy tyler bed.
HS foooosball
Omg. Mississippi hs football on the radio is excellent entertainment. Ps. They can't add.
Next year
since every rest stop from nola to memphis is closed for reconstruction. This trip next year will have some pretty sweet rest areas.
Kerk on a mission
Brolson and I are petrified at the speed of traffic on I-55. Kerk decided to join the pack to make sure we get to Memphis. Must maximize fun.
MemphissSsssss
Brolson netbooked us a schweeet hotel downtown memphis for only 89. Delta music fest going on. Sounds like memphis is all party tonight.
Canal street
Leaving the french quarter to head to the lower ninth ward to see the devastation still remaining. What a sight to see. New Orleans is not back on its feet. Stay classy nola.

Wow
Well we lost. But we still are going out. The people on the river are happy to give.
Charity hospital.
Google it or wiki it. Closed. But ready to open thanks to a large medical center in minnesota. Politics got in the way. Sad
Popular
We four boys are soooo popular. Pics. Free drinks. Free hugs and high fives. And lots of love from the saints fans.
N.O. On holiday
Public schools are closed and many businesses have decided to close as well.
OMG DMB
Holla the NFL kickoff party in french quarter is one huge free concert. Dave Matthews Band and more.
1 hour behind sched
We are getting delayed from all the action, people, and Saints fans that want to make friends. Also a retreat to the casino for a/c.
Rollin.
No matter what the outcome of the game is. "The people on the river are happy to give.". Nawlins is rolling out the carpet for the vikes.
NFL Kickoff
The city is already one big party. Stages of music. Roads are closed and full of people and lots of vikings.
Epic night
Up at 921 and rolling on the streets of big easy.
