New Orleans Jazz Fest

Ron and I first attended Jazz Fest in 1996. This year we returned on a kid free weekend with some current and past General Mills friends and our original Jazz Fest friends. Grammie flew in from Chicago to spend time with the kids and make the weekend a reality for us. What an amazing weekend. We saw some of our favorite bands like Dave Matthews Band and Wilco, along with some new favorites like Spoon, Kinky, and the Rebirth Brass Band. We enjoyed crawfish and beignets in true New Orleans fashion. We enjoyed new hats to keep the sun out of our face and we enjoyed time as a couple! Additionally, Ron was excited to run into Terri Hemmeret from WXRT in Chicago and Alon from HP israel, some random connections. Grammie was busy with the kids, including a special concert for Canyon at the Eden Priarie High School.
