I arrived a few minutes early for an appointment today and was parked in front of St Stephen's Church on Napoleon listening to my iPod. A very dark skinned black man with grey hair rode up on a bicycle. He was wearing a long sleeved bright red button down shirt (crisply ironed), black pants, and a white cowboy hat. He paused in front of the church, then rode up to about 3 feet from the steps. He then got off his bicycle, got down on one knee, and took his hat off. He remained in that position for about a minute, then straightened up, replaced his hat, and rode on. I love New Orleans.
