New Orleans Seafood Festival

Tough loss last night. Let's rememeber that the Pack is probably the best team that we will play all season. Moving on.

Today marks the beginning of the New Orleans Seafood Festival, which this year has been extended to 3 days of food, music, arts, crafts, and chef demonstrations to benefit the Louisiana Hospitality Foundation.  The setting is Lafayette Square, of course, which should make for a perfect setting considering the cooler weather that started this week.
