Great Places to Go!  Definitely "A Lips Recommendation!"

UCM Mystery Museum by Mr. John Preble:



 

We have been here a few times and enjoy it every visit.  Photo opps Galore!  

Every inch, heavily decorated, in a myriad of ways--here are his woodcuts--for sale in the Gift Shop!

"Church of the Full Tilt Boogie &Ike Turner

Love the way he recycles everything--and for art!  A man after my own heart!

 "Make BIG money open a cool Museum!!!"

Walking through here makes me want to collect cool stuff and put it on display, that's for sure!  And remember--

"If you have 3 or more, it's a Collection"

Following around to the different buildings--

--brings you to some Happy Surprises!

My heroes, too!!!!--New Orleans Musicians James Booker, Snooks Eaglin, Clarence "Frogman" Henry, Aaron Neville, Fats Dominoe, Ernie K-Doe, Chris Kenner, Jessie Hill, Lee Dorsey, Irma Thomas, Bobby Marchand and Earl King.  Although I would add "BO"-- for Eddie!

The Patrick Shea Noonan Observation Deck----of the turtles!

A long building to the right displays old-time memorabilia, dioramas and interesting artifacts, musical and otherwise:

Love these old-timey travel brochures. Used to send for them when I was in school!  Beauty freebies!
