Now that I'm more awake, I want to include a cute photo of AmericanMom1 and her patriotic kiddie FReepers (Mandy and Trippie). Isn't this a great photo! Oh, I forgot to say that AmericanMom1 is my daughter and the kiddie FReepers are my grandkids.

Newslady, we forgot to do the Second Line, a tradition in New Orleans. This is also called the umbrella dance. We had an American flag umbrella for the leader. Others, who form a line to do the dance, use umbrellas of varying sizes, or a napkin which is held up high and twirled as they strut to the music called Second Line. Oh well, next time.
