Well, it’s almost Christmas at the shore. The captain just returned from a trip to the Gulf of Mexico, which was also decked out for the holidays, but doesn’t rival his home town. While drinking coffee and eating beignets at the Cafe Du Monde, it occurred to me that it might be nice to have something like that along Ocean Avenue. New Orleans may have beignets, some great music and wonderful food, but it doesn’t have the beach.

Happy Holidays to All!
