Krewe of Palmyra June 7, 2008

Bourbonistas,

You are welcome to join in with the Krewe of Palmyra next Saturday June 7 for their annual parade.
I have attended the first tow and both were a hoot.
There will be a brass bass for live music.
We will visit 3 bars in the Mid City neighborhood and have a party afterward.
I built a priate float for Hash House Harriers and we will put this float in the parade along with a keg of beer.

If you want to participate let me know and I will get your donation to to Robbie.
Of course parties cost some money to put on, so there is a donation of $10.

As for costume, I will a pirate with a beach blanket sarape.

Don't miss the fun
Lewis
