 More Festival Fun

 We had an absolute blast at Festival International this past weekend. Fabulous Cajun food, music, and fun! Here's a little clip that I took at the Chevron Stage of Leroy Thomas and the Zydeco Roadrunners rockin' the crowd.  The high spirited crowd was in overdrive, along with the band, and I thought that the roof was going to blow off! LOL
