Born on the bayou, raised in the city. Exiled on the northshore. Don’t worry, New Orleans, I’ll be back.

Hello!
I’m writing to you from Destee-Nation Shirt Company. We’re a Seattle-based company that seeks out independent businesses and icons of local culture all over America. We feature their stories on our online travel journal, and their iconography (logos, signage, whatever) on vintage-style t-shirts that draw fans from around the world.

I’m eager to hear from you in reference to the road trip currently underway by our lead scout, Gabe. He’s traveling the country in a restored 1967 Airstream trailer, highlighting the greatest local businesses and venues.

Since you clearly know New Orleans better than most, I wondered if you’d be willing to provide suggestions or advice for Gabe’s sojourn there. New Orleans has so many intriguing and unique venues–we’d love to have the guidance of a local voice like yours.

You can find out more about us at http://www.desteenation.com/roadtrip

Thanks a million for your informative blog.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

Pete-
Just stumbled across your blog surfing for Louisiana-rlated blogs. Just wanted to say that I love the pic in your header. I’m a member of the Buccaneers of Lake Charles; we are the official pirates for the city’s Contraband Days festival, so obviously intt these piratey-type things.

I’ll be sure to check back again.
