NOLA -- Fun Times!

I have so many wonderful memories from my time in New Orleans this week. It was fun seeing old friends and making new ones! 

I ended up having a fun night out with friends which means I didn't get my work done, but it'll be here tomorrow. I leave for the airport first thing tomorrow, so I'm hoping to upload everything while I'm waiting to fly home. Check back  ... I haven't forgotten. 

Thanks for coming to my sessions, and stay in touch. Email if you need anything:  1970cld@gmail.com.
