Family day out

My parents came to visit for the day. We went out to eat, my mom and I got a little drunk on some wine, and we tooled around downtown and Mud Island for an afternoon. The weather was gorgeous and everyone was in a good mood. Perfection!


These are my folks: Steve and Fran. He likes NASCAR and her favorite color is green.


This is a statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest and his horse and his horse's giant genitalia.


Someone scrawled his or her feelings regarding Mr. Forrest on the base of the monument.


Inside a steamboat replica.


Coming up to the captain's steering room. Or whatever it's called.


This is a topographically accurate concrete replica of the Mississippi River. Wheee!


My 'hood, in concrete-and-metal relief.


Me and dad.


Heh.

Ha ha! You found me! I talked to mom today and said you told her all about the drunkenness and horse genitals. Good times!
