This morning on my way back from the gym I passed by this street sign. Someone had taken the time to plant this beautiful flowering vine around your plain old "One Way" street sign. How beautiful is that? It certainly made my day, and it will make my day every time I pass by now, and I'm sure as soon as someone else notices, it will bring a little bit of joy to their life too.
The last two weeks have been very hectic getting back into the swing of school, but this afternoon I did make time for myself to take some pictures, and, as per usual, New Orleans provided infinite beauty.
Maple Street Bookshop is my favorite bookshop in the world. The only one that even comes close is Shakespeare and Co. in Paris.
I also passed by this house whose peeling paint, rusted window unit, and general slow decay I found very beautiful. For some reason these sorts of houses seem to epitomize the South to me, and especially New Orleans.
As usual, a beautiful posting - just love the fotos, esp the "one way" and the AC unit in house. A wonderfully vicarious way to enjoy NO.
