It's Super Bowl Weekend and New Orleans is in the spotlight. Just recently, NOLA made the papers when former mayor, Ray Nagin was indicted by the Feds for several counts of accepting bribes from local contractors doing business with the city. But now, it's all about the Harbaugh brothers, Jim and John, coaches of the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers.
New Orleans knows how to party and this is no exception. As the focus of a major slice of the population, NOLA will put her best foot forward. The weather appears to be cooperating and the fans have descended en masse on the French Quarter and just about every other quarter of the city.
Don't try to eat anywhere without a reservation, and even then, expect to wait. Of course, locals know that Mardi Gras is just around the corner, so crewes and krewes are in earnest preparation for that run also. Not that this puts any strain on the locals, they're used to it.
It's New Orleans!
Lake Tahoe, California's Alpine playground, is anchored on the west shore by Homewood/Tahoma, straddling two counties:Placer and El Dorado. The mayor of Tahoma posts information related to the area and items of interest to residents and visitors alike. Its goal is to be informative, humorous, and timely. Hope you enjoy the site.
