[Yellow Rose of Texas]

Thank you for the information. My youngest brother went to Tulane for a year back in the 70's. I went to visit during spring break. Had a great time, I stayed at the St. Charles in the biggest room I had ever seen. Great food, wonderful folks, beautiful scenery. I always promised myself I would get back some day. How I wish I could.

I spent my wedding night at the old Roosevelt Hotel in NO. And I went to school there for five years. Lived on Canal Street beyond Claiborne and rode the streetcar down canal every day. Then they took the streetcars away from Canal,,I mourned that. I loved those cars.

It is a beguiling city, full of wonderful people and charm and music and food. And also dangerous like many big cities. I think it was more dangerous because it was so beguiling.
