04/26/2012
After cursing out RTA's automated phone service, suffering through a city tour-esque streetcar ride and crossing that super-scary Canal Street-Canal Boulevard-City Park Avenue intersection to get from the Canal streetcar to the Veterans bus, I was looking forward to a relaxing ride down Veterans Boulevard; I figured I'd find a few cool stores, grab something yummy to eat and be on my way back home to the 7th Ward by 4 p.m. After all, everything is in Metairie on Veterans Boulevard?right?
