A couple years ago, there was this campaign, “Be a tourist in your hometown.” Of course, to do that, I would have to go to all the interesting places in Topeka, KS. All two of them. Ohhh, NOLA. I love you and your deep-seated, often understandable wariness for strangers and outsiders. Love you warts and all.
I had family in town. We went to Longue Vue House & Gardens. I had never been.
