I never saw New Orleans. Johnnie had been there, and he's talked for years about us going. I never said no, but I never worked up a lot of enthusiasm either. We aren't partiers, or musically inclined. I would love to have seen the architecture, but, travel is so difficult for us, beyond overnight things. In the end, we never went. As we were waiting for the hurricane to hit, I started to feel a profound regret that we had never made it. When it appeared that they had been spared, we made a promise that we would go next year, after he retired. Now, I wonder if we will ever make it.
