New Orleans - Day 1

I am travel agent of the year.  Not only is the room in the B&B ginormous with its own balcony but the common area has an honor bar with beer on tap for $2 a pint!  The photo shows Bill enjoying his second B&B brew.  That french window leads out to our balcony, out of photo to the left is a little alcove with a day bed, and behind me is the bathroom which is the size of our living room at home.

After trying our first po'boys for lunch we wandered into the various shops and galleries on Magazine St.   Tony Mose was one such artist (gallery pictured above) who chatted up a storm, taking us into his back room to see a work in progress and tried to give Bill artist to artist encouragement.  The key, he says is to paint your own apples, not someone else's apples.  And then someone will come along who loves your apples.  I love Bill's apples.
