New Year's Party in the Big Easy

They're partying in New Orleans. The place is a party town so a celebration is fitting after the horror its citizens have gone through. A moment of celebration lifts the soul from the torment surrounding it. One resident said, "New Orleans is back open, so come on down and start visiting. That's the word to get out." Unfortunately visitors may be the only ones returning for quite some time. The Big Easy was dying before Hurricane Katrina hit. The city's further dependence on tourism won't bring its people back.
