After an all out, “Cannonball Run” style, 18 hour drive, we have arrived. Thankfully the trip from Maryland to NOLA was fairly uneventful. Upon arrival, we parked the car, wandered around the French Quarter, got food and drinks, and checked in at the hotel.

Being one of those work from anywhere freelancers is a blessing and a curse. I avoid the soul crushing drudgery of office life. The downside is, I never really get away from the office. So here in a hotel in New Orleans, I have set up a mini production suite. The Jazz Fest doesn’t really get underway until tomorrow, so I have at least a few hours to get some work done.
