Good morning from Houston! (Ugh).

15 years ago today I put a top bucket list item in the done column and watched #STS135 Atlantis launch. It was the final shuttle mission. #NASA

Went to visit a friend in Ocean Springs today. Stopped at the Walter Anderson museum, Shearwater pottery, and Crave Food Hall. Ate wood-grilled steak at Cheryl's, and took a walk on the beach and pier. Pretty much the whole OS experience.

My very dapper great-Uncle Billy, #kentuckyderbyday 1958.

Another morning of people being effing hard-headed and not listening. I went to the dentist earlier and it would have be a much better day if I had just stayed there.

St. Joseph Church is always lovely. Got my goody bag with the cucidatti lucky bean, and blessed sand.

Totally zoned that it's St. Joseph's day. Must go to St. Joseph's church on Tulane for my lucky bean after work. It's always a gorgeous altar.

New pre-parade tradition. I always park out the box in the Napoleon/Daniel area. Used to eat at Manale's because Charlie's didn't open until 5:30. They're open at 3:30 this week so here I am waiting on my ribeye with the "small" onion rings.

Chemtrails were on point earlier.

Death ray by the Causeway.

Caught a little bit of opening day at the Fair Grounds. It was magic! Turned $20 into $2 just like that.

Looked cooler in person but oaks/sun/fog combo got me out of my car to snap a shot leaving for work this morning.

All Saints Day visit with the family at our future home in St. Louis 1.

Taste-testing these oddly-illustrated Parisian Lay's chips. They taste like regular Lay's BBQ. Disappointing!

Made it to Paris.

By the way, Amsterdam is cute and all but the weather here is like the most miserable February day in New Orleans. 49 degrees, driving rain and bone-chilling wind.

I'm in Amsterdam and my camera alarm has been going off non-stop because of the thunder and lightning in NOLA. Hope everyone stays safe!

Was wondering about this because I had sneezed several times in public and no one said anything. Apparently, in the rest of the Spanish-speaking world, you sa, "Salud." But according to Reddit and confirmed IRL, in Spain...

It was supposed to rain today, so I am now spending a beautiful Madrid morning at the Lavanderia Presto-Plus (highly recommended).

Said cathedral from my hotel's balcony view.
October 21, 2025 at 1:22 PM
Cool chemicals over the Catedral Primada de Toledo today.
October 21, 2025 at 1:15 PM
Fixing to take the speed train to Toledo.

Big day in Madrid today. Saw Guernica at the Museo Reina Sofia along with the children learning about Dali & Miro, and some anti-n%#i posters from the 30s. Headed to Casa Julián de Tolosa for a Basque-style steak, walk back through El Retiro park and the best version of gambas a ajillo so far.
