I love New Orleans and really enjoyed seeing it again through your eyes.

Where else could one see such amazing iron-work galleries, shuttered windows and doors on practically every house, real gas lanterns which are lit around the clock, and streets so narrow they felt more like back alleys than actual streets. All this adds to the charm and ambiance of a city I could not imagine existing anywhere else in the world!Chronica Domushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06732224119040843337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454554472800124620.post-68894998290694448402018-10-26T08:15:48.085-07:002018-10-26T08:15:48.085-07:00PS ... and, finally, one can hop on a flight from ...PS ... and, finally, one can hop on a flight from San Francisco to New Orleans and fly direct in just under four hours (last I checked - several years ago - connecting flights were involved and the journey would consume an entire day).Chronica Domushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06732224119040843337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454554472800124620.post-13013869905218856602018-10-26T08:13:16.473-07:002018-10-26T08:13:16.473-07:00Hello Stephanie Bell,

Oh, and yes, the food ... spiced, but not overly so.<br /><br />How interesting to learn of an Ohio connection with regards to some of the iron work adorning the older structures of New Orleans. The particular fence I included in my post was cast by a foundry called Wood & Miltenberger in Philedelphia.

I love a city that goes to extra lengths with decorative and heritage touches - that ironwork is fabulous! Throwing in food food and atmosphere makes it even better.

(San Francisco is probably first, but you are already there, and N.O. has more specialty foods, especially the spicy kinds!)<br /><br />I love New Orleans' signature ironwork, but if you look closely at the manufacturer's plates, you will see that many pieces were cast in Ohio or the Great Lakes area.<br />--JimParnassushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08958901307538141468noreply@blogger.com
