Mardi Gras Parties

February 20, 2007 is Mardi Gras. There are plenty of parties around town. Make sure to get some party attire for this event. You can find beads at your local party store and pick up some new threads at the local trendy clothes store or thrift store.

Going to a live music event or where they give out beads is the perfect way to enjoy the night. If you forget to bring some beads with you, make sure you try to earn them from some cool people along the way.

I went to Mardi Gras in New Orleans the year before Katrina. It is not about crazy drunk people in case that is what you are thinking. The parades are fun family events where everyone comes together as a community to have a great time. After Katrina, Mardi Gras means even more then it used to. Meet some new people at Mardi Gras and make some memories...
