everybody plays at the playground

More fun at the playground...today with a couple of sheriff deputies who are assigned to the community policing unit in a rougher part of town.

characters at the playground

A little bit of a theme here...as the weather gets nicer I end up spending a lot of time scoping out playgrounds to see which ones could use some TLC by volunteers.  This playground is just around the corner from my house and while it needs some work, it has one resident who seems pretty happy with the way things are now, although he might be happier with some fish nearby.

a playground is a sad place with no kids

Had to scope out some playgrounds for work today...and in doing that I got a little sad as playgrounds are just not the same without kids around.

A Crazy Fridge

This is what my fridge has looked like for the past couple of days...but today it's empty again, as I took all the leftover food for the volunteers at the Bunny Hop to the soup kitchen this morning.  Thanks to the company that asks up to "eat more chikin" for providing the volunteers with free breakfast and lunch!

Need to do this more often...

Which does include hot chocolate and beignets at Cafe du Monde...but also getting down to New Orleans, seeing good friends, tipping well, inviting strangers to sit with us, and sharing what's on our hearts!

Here Comes Peter Cottontail...

Today we had an all parish (county) event called the Bunny Hop! Part of the fun of the Bunny Hop is the super duper Easter egg "hunts" which you can see here in this picture.  I like to call the event Easter on steroids.  It started out a bit brisk in the morning, but turned into a wonderful day!

Not my typical friday night

Went to a fundraiser tonight and they had these golden saxophones as the centerpieces!  I thought it was some interesting table decor.  And what was more interesting was the adults who were absconding with them at the end of the night!
