Has anyone else noticed, now that the river waters have begun to recede, that the river "bleached" the stairs along the levee? Makes you wonder what chemicals are in the water.....

Oh well, at least they concrete look new! ha ha

A rare shot of Gardere here on UP. It would be nice if they widened and beautified Dawson Creek from Perkins Rowe to The Grove back toward Ward's Creek and Mall of La.

LOL sorry for the delayed response...... I was thinking the same thing about the contrast in color there. I have only imagined what all is in that water.

No SoutheastBR I was not downtown Sunday; but I drove thru Saturday; always good to see the increased activity! I don't know what it is about that area of downtown?? But I love it! From the Hilton Capitol Center to Shaw Center; Old State Cap; Repentance fountains; River Center; LASM/Planetarium; North Blvd., etc.

Nice collection of pics BRToday! Nice to see you posting again!

Yo LT! What do you think is in that water?? Interesting to say the least.

Here's my contribution for the day....taken a couple weeks ago. New II City Plaza going up a couple of blocks behind the Old State Capitol

With High Temps reaching the mid 90's The Repentance Fountains look like a nice place to cool off.

Sorry no the best pic; just before took this, I got a nice shot of the side of a big furniture truck

Driving East-bound...really need to take another pic in the passenger seat going westbound instead

Here is a pic I took a few months ago of two geese that landed in my front yard. After I fed them some bread they decided to take a nap.

I have plenty of more pics if I can get this thing to stop labeling them as "dynamic pages".

Here's a sample.

Mall of Louisiana

Mall at Cortana

[richyb83]

I like the natural lighting in that pic with all the glass on top of Mall of La. Wish Cortana had more of that; though some might disagree.
