Halloween’s behind us. The candy’s gone, the costumes are questionable memories at best, and New Orleans has slipped into that dangerously easy stretch of the year where one holiday folds right into the next until, suddenly, it’s Mardi Gras and we’re all covered in glitter again.
With Thanksgiving on the horizon and families gathering around their tables, we wanted to share what we’re thankful for: the weather finally cooling off; those spectacular fall sunsets we get to watch from the office (thanks, time change and thanks, Batture); and that we’re not the ones digging through City Hall’s couch cushions looking for $160 million.
