The election night photo set from Barack Obama’s Flickr is quite eyebrow raising. It will be interesting to see if his communications team keeps this sort of thing going once he’s sworn in.

Bourbon Blues on the Street, Loose and Complete
This past week I spent three days in New Orleans. Stayed just off Bourbon St., right in the middle of the French Quarter. I was amazed to see how much the city has bounced backed since Hurricane Katrina. I know there’s still a lot work to be done and they’re still feeling the ripple effects of the devastation (eg. serious population shrinkage and a major education crisis as a result) but when I interacted with the locals and heard their stories I definitely felt the spirit that has and continues to empower them through the healing process.
I took a few photos. Would have liked to explored the city a little more but I was on a tight schedule.
