Living in New Orleans, it can be easy to forget you’re not really in that big of a city after all. There’s an entire world, just a few miles away, that most people in New Orleans would never dream of venturing .
Unfortunately, St. Bernard Parish gets a bad rap.Aimee is a Chalmette native, so I’m down there on a regular basis. It isn’t necessarily St. Charles Ave, but there is a certain charm about Chalmette. There’s lots of open land, diverse wildlife, and the mighty Mississippi. And, while the air may not be the freshest around, it does have one thing Magazine Street doesn’t have. Fresh Alligator.
