These party guardians sit on a porch overlooking the street where I parked my car for Jazz Fest.
They kept away the meter maids and car booters. I owe them.
How like our city to place sunglasses, hats and scarves on cement dogs. In Pompeii, the dogs are captured in mosaic tiles still guarding the remains of the lost city. I guess New Orleans and Pompeii have similarities: ports, ancient treasures and old world influence. You can hear the sirens calling you back to both places.
If you love music, good food and amazing culture the allure of these cities hum in your ear, "Return.."
Listen to their voices now, "Honey, come back. Don't be a stranger."
