Eric was a splendid host, even with our bumbling at the tail end of our week long NOLA Bacchanal. He recommended a post office so I could mail my souvenirs home, and provided packing tape to boot. In exchange, I left him all the beer we found when we finally cleaned out the rental car. The rooms were spacious and clean, and I couldn’t hear my dad snoring through the walls. The garden was LUXE and the anoles were cute and I couldn’t have asked for a better finish to our trip.
