Miriam

I enjoyed bringing my sister, Miriam, to and from her apartment in New Orleans.  There was never a dull moment in the journey or the pickup.  For the most part, I drove my Nissan 240SX and carried a 9mm Colt All American 2000 in a shoulder holster.

I would find a place to park and then walk to her apartment on Dauphine, across from Matassa's Market.  I always open carried arms and never came to grief for it.  I only ever got lip once from a man seeing me walking with a rifle, in the French Quarter, on the way from Miriam's to my car.  He asked me who I was looking to shoot.  Well, there were other interesting moments but I will relate them at another time.
