A Tour of Public Restrooms

---

We pulled into the drive minutes before the sun began to drop below the horizon. Tyler and I unpacked onto the lawn and dispersed all the baggage to its respectful owners.

The take away:
1. Tyler needs a diaper and cranberry juice or pills, too many bathroom stops.
2. Speck needs to wear more sunscreen.
3. Abcde travels like a champ.
4. Wife needs to be the first through the bathroom each morning, not the last.
5. The Boucherie's 12 hour brisket with horseradish and onions was the best thing I ate the whole trip, closely followed by Muriel's goat cheese crepe with crawfish remoulade and Jack Ruby's butter steak sliders

6. If leaving after Caroline works a full day, ALWAYS pick her up from work and get on road from there. This worked brilliantly.

Favorites from the fest:
Speck: having Abcde on my shoulders for the Charmaine Neville show, great food from vendors
Caroline: Seeing friends and family while getting out of Lexington
Vallery: eating and touring, she had never been to New Orleans before
Tyler: Just loves this festival. Already talking about next year.

Just over $300 for 6 nights hotel rooms and parking for Caroline and I, $70 of gas for our share of the fill-ups, $60 worth of Daquaris, $12 diet pepsi, 1 handle of bourbon, untallied dollars for restaurant/fast food/festival food. Really not that expensive for a weeks vacation.
