In 2007 Dan and I retired from work, hitched our 5th wheel to our truck, and hit the road. We are full time RV'ers so we take our home with us everywhere we go. We live by the credo "Home Is Where You Park It" and we have found Home in many an awesome setting! I created this blog to track our adventures as we travel around the US, Canada, and Mexico. Two of our goals include visiting all the State Capitals and as many of the Baseball Parks as possible, with everything else we can fit in between!

New Orleans Architecture
Here are some samples of the amazing architecture from different areas of New Orleans including the Garden District, Esplanade Drive, Oak Alley Plantation, and the French Quarter. Many of the homes in the Garden District belong to well known authors, actors, and others among the rich and famous, but for the most part, the plantations have been turned into museums, with docent led tours where tourists can learn much about the history of New Orleans. Some of the older neighborhoods still have homes with architecture from a bygone era, and many have been restored to retain the regional look and feel.
