So the algiers ferry is supposed to be cut off in about a month and a half - the state has cut funding (wow, really?) and no private business has stepped up.
So I get to the dock this AM and there are about 7 new LED screens installed all over it
that is strange. Either the screens were ordered a year ago and just came in, or someone has stepped up and it isn't known yet, or someone from where the ferry is going was given permission to start renovating early.
Or, it is Louisiana politics and the right hand does not know what the left is doing. Oh darn.:jpshakehead:
It is not a good thing to have the ferry shut down. I know you will feel it harder in Algiers but the rest of the city will feel it to. The connection with old Algiers is as old as the city and it is not the same backtracking to find the entrance to the GNO. I have sometimes taken my grandfather for joy rides on that sucker when I could not think of anything else to get him out and about. People bristle and cause commotion when our old restaurants close, well this is just as worthy of saving.
