New Orleans

Is there any Rx-7's in or near new orleans. I've been here for almost six months and seen nothing. I am bringing my FD up from Miami in a few weeks and am looking for others around here with the rotary.

I'm not in New Orleans per say, but Bay St. Louis is pretty close. There are a few of us rotary people on the MS gulf coast. See the other thread I have about doing a cruise soon!

When I was living in new orleans, I met quite a few. They don't really come out much though. I saw them at their house, and actually just stopped in and introduced myself. Good Luck.

Wow. They close the lakefront down at night now? I guess Sevens on the Shore isn't around anymore?

Speaking of Lakefront, I'm really pumped about the lakefront meet this year! I'll actually be able to go!

I am less than 5 mins from the lakefront and it sucks that you cannot cruise the lakefront at night anymore. Its an outrage. Maybe the new Mayor will change the rule.

13th FTW! That's the first Saturday of my spring break so I won't have a bunch of school work to do. I'm all about it! How's Hooters on the beach in Biloxi again? That was fun last time.
