Im driving up with a friend and we are meeting 2 other friends there. I have been looking forward to this trip for months I just checked out the weather and it looks like it should be high of low 80's, lows of 68-70. That sounds perfect! I have been once before and was able to do all the touristy things then, so I don't care what we do this time. I just wanna eat, drink and relax with friends!

Have fun! We just got a cool front yesterday and the weather is amazing! Even a little chilly at night. Go to Deanie's Seafood and order the BBQ shrimp!

HA.. I didn't even see the other Deanie's post...

Crabmeat Au Gratin
We use jumbo lump crabmeat and bake it with our creamy blend of four cheeses and fresh seasonings. Served with salad and French bread.

I been to NO only once and been to Deanie's 3 times in one visit.. Sad I know, and only ordered the Crabmeat Au Gratin.

You all keep suggesting and eating Cafe du Monde and I'll keep our supremely fabulous "mom and pop" place under wraps. Don't want it becoming a tourist spot.




This is Texas. We don't have regular seasons here. We have Summer 1, Summer 2, Summer 3 and January.
