Do you have any Mardi Gras plans? You better get to planning it because it is just around the corner; I personally would love to go to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. I think that would be the best time, EVER! Since, my funds are so tight right now that is completely out of the question. You can still get the awesome food they will have in New Orleans right here in Evansville.
