Outlaw Country Cruise

Click image for more photos ...

Kate and I took the Outlaw Country Cruise out of New Orleans, managed by Sixthman Cruises, in January.

Kate's brother Gord and his wife Leslie came to cat/house sit for us at our AirBnB shotgun house rental when we were on the cruise so we were worry free. Piscine, our cat, was travelling with us.

This album contains shots of artist performances we caught and enjoyed -- Dale Watson, Steve Earle, Lucinda Williams, Jaime Wyatt, Nikki Lane, Elizabeth Cook, Rodney Crowell, Ray Wylie Hubbard and many more.

The album ends with a photo of Kate with Kinky Friedman as we were disembarking. He was one of the primary reasons for taking the cruise and was happy to pose for the personal photo. He dedicated the song "Marilyn and Joe" to us one evening, tears welled.

Ps. they wouldn't allow the usual camera gear on board so I was limited to a pocket camera for all these photos. Many times I wished I had my DSLR for the lenses and higher speeds.
