LSU is everywhere in Baton Rouge.

The Wasted Krewe are a standard at the annual Mardi Gras parade.

Watch out for that tree!

Can anyone here read Gaelic?

A porch full of talent

When Irish eyes are smiling
Sure it's like a morn in spring
In the lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing.

The St. Patrick's Day parade is one of Baton Rouge's biggest parties. A friend of mine threw his own party complete with live music in his front yard, just a couple blocks from the parade route. We enjoyed both the party (for seven hours) and the parade (for 30 minutes).

dadlak Indeed! There's nothing like live music at a party, at least for me--especially if I get to sing. We had a party with most of the same musicians at my house just a week earlier--held inside on a night with 40 degree F air temperature. I'll post some shots from that night too.
