A line cast, a hope followed

A basement full of dusty jam jars, rusty faucets, cobwebs. Coincidentally, also the place I hang my laundry to dry. Lights or darks, depending on the load.

I gotta recommend priceline.com for anyone trying to travel nicely but cheaply.
I got our hotel rooms in New Orleans at this hotel, complete with Chihuly chandeliers in the lobby, for $55 USD a night. Over a weekend. Which would not be so great if we had a car with us, since parking is over $20 USD a day, but we won't.
