Landed safely and arrived!

Made it to the hotel. Going to get some food and will be going live in a bit. Going to do some walking while it’s still sunny outside.

And my wife told me I need to get a doughnut at this place.

Walking through New Orleans

I’ve got a few hours to walk around before my flight. Walked from the hotel to the French Quarter, found bourbon Street, and made my way back to the French Quarter

I spoke with the lady serving coffee. She says New Orleans, and bourbon Street area in particular, is just getting worse and worse. She said she wants to move. Can’t stand the tourists.

And when you appreciate the type of tourist that comes to Bourbon Street, and the reasons for which they come, you can pretty much understand the sentiments.

She said an Uber driver was killed just off Bourbon Street the other week.

The coffee was very good at least

Bourbon Street feels like Vegas, only dirtier. And I didn’t think that was possible. Lol.

The architecture is beautiful. Aesthetically, it’s somewhat picturesque. It kind of feels like 1600s France. Except instead of cafés lining the streets, it’s bars and strip clubs. not my cup of tea.

They are literally cleaning the sidewalks. Apparently they do it at least every Thursday. Cleaning up ...

I gave the talk…

I think it went well! I will share the video as soon as I can get it.

In the meantime, this was the “motivational” self-pep video I recorded right before, but forgot to post! lol

A picture is worth 1000 words

A video is worth 1000 pictures.

And a time lapse is worth 1000 videos?

Here’s the flight from Florida to New Orleans.

I sure do miss Charlie. He was wise beyond his years. He was an encouraged, a fighter and held nothing back. He understood our youth and the failings of the church. He had a incredible gift of communication.

The Barnes Brief: Halloween, 2025

I.   INTRODUCTION

A. Art of the Day

  • As harvest ends, we commence the remembrance of death itself, recognizing its role in the cycle of life, as All Hallows Eve awaits the All Souls Day to follow. Our Celtic ancestors, and many contemporary Mexican celebrants with their Day of the Dead, see the sun set into winter’s moon, and the souls of those alive and past dance in the foggy merriment, with the light & the darkness competing for the souls of us all.

B. Wisdom of the Day

  • “I have to study politics and war so that my sons can study mathematics, commerce, and agriculture, so their sons can study poetry, painting and music.” John Quincy Adams.

C. Cultural Recommendation

D. Appearances

The Barnes Brief: Wednesday, October 29, 2025

I.   INTRODUCTION

A. Art of the Day

A rainy day in a French café, enjoying an orange presse and a well-made latte, with a good book to digest, amidst the quiet conversations in neghboring tables, a place to disappear lost in thought amidst the soft tap-tap-tap of the water on the windowsill.  

B. Wisdom of the Day

“There’s always one more thing you can do to influence any situation in your favor—and after that one more thing, and after that…. The more you do the more opportunities arise.” Lieutenant General Harold Moore, born in the heart of Bourbon country and served in Vietnam.

C. Cultural Recommendation

A trip down memory lane, and how tactical blunders drove most of the nation’s mistakes in war. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6405098-the-folly-of-war
