TN Chick has chosen “signs” for this weeks hunt.
The photos I’ve chosen are from my files but all three signs are still right where they were two years ago.
All were taken here in the city.

This is one of my favorite photos because I love the quote and I love how well the composition turned out - strictly a fluke! It was taken at the labyrinth in Audubon Park in the fall of 2006 and I wrote a bit about it on my old blog. I used to walk it 2 or 3 times a week in the mornings before work but, now that I go in for 7:00, it’s a practice that has fallen by the wayside. I miss it.

The sign on the left of the state bird, the Pelican, is on the bridge over the Mississippi River that connects the east bank (New Orleans proper) to the westbank (suburbs).
The sign on the right is a street in the city that runs parallel to and a block off the river.
It’s pronounced……………how? Anyone?
I drive up and down Tchoup every work day before/after crossing the bridge to/from the westbank where I live. (I even have a Flickr set of photos I’ve taken on the street.) We have many streets with unique names - or uniquely pronounced names - but that’s a whole other post! Pistolette has a recent post about the pronounciation of the streets nanamed after the five muses here. Check out the comments.
Hope you’ve enjoyed the pix and commentary on these photos of my city, New Orleans.
