Oh Dog, you Sleuth!

Notice anything different?
It makes me think of that art market truism about the value of a painting going up after the artist dies, but is it true about the subject as well? I was pretty devastated when I saw the sign had been changed, which is the kind of thing that sets off a chain reaction of feelings about New Orleans in general… like I feel like I’m the only person in the world who can possibly fully appreciate it and never want to see anything change from the way I remember it, even though I don’t particularly want to live there anymore and the place really scares me more than anywhere I’ve ever been. In other words: hypocrisy.

Anyway, I thought Megan (at least) might appreciate seeing the rest of the restaurant.

As you can see, it’s a very prestigious company.

Seriously, though, if the market forces could kill one of my favorite signs then really nothing was safe. So I tried to make a little time in my short visit to quickly record some of my other favorites, which is what I’ll be showing for the rest of the week.
