The rain continued this morning. There was nothing that the four of us wanted to do that was indoors, so we decided to take the day off from site seeing. The boys had been wanting to visit Harbor Freight since before we arrived in Metairie, so off they went. Harbor Freight is a inexpensive tool, etc store. Carol and I stayed home and did a little cleaning, Caity supervised and Zaph slept. Around noon when the rain ended Zaph, Caity and I went for a walk. We finished the day by going out for dinner. The guy from the air boat tour told us about a couple of good local restaurants near the townhouse so we decided to try one out --- New Orleans Food and Spirits.

Ed's beer came in a frozen glass. It is a local beer called Turbodog.

The photo doesn't do it justice, but this fountain was just outside the restaurant. I like the statement of fire over water.
