I never really noticed how pretty this bandstand is until yesterday. Perhaps it is because I was the only person in the Park and could enjoy everything piece by piece. I felt like the girl in "The Secret Garden", discovering new things. Can't you just hear John Philip Sousa tunes played by a military band here?
Except for clearing of the major streets in the Park of fallen trees there has been no other cleanup. It is as though everyone left never to return. Today, I hope to cleanup a small area around the little "famous" stone bridge. I cannot stand it anymore to see it in that condition. I should be cleaning my moldy house in Metairie instead but the outdoors is much more fun.
