New Orleans - here we come!

About to hop on the place - and then there's the news about flooding, but we have this report ....


"Due to heavy rain in the Mississippi Valley and rising Mississippi River water stages and flow, visitors and clients have asked questions regarding any implications this may have for New Orleans. New Orleans is not subject to the type of river and tributary flooding seen along other parts of the Mississippi River due to the extensive water diversion systems that guide high river waters away from New Orleans and other river communities. For example, on Monday, May 9, 2011 the United States Army Corps of Engineers opened the Bonnet Carre Spillway to alleviate pressure, flow and water levels of the Mississippi River."

We are so looking forward to our first International Convention.

Let the good times roll - again!
