Beaded Fences

This week it’s Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday,) the last day of Carnival.

If you are fortunate enough to be in New Orleans celebrating, you might see some of the city’s ornate iron fences decorated in beads, a Carnival tradition. The colors of Mardi Gras – gold, green, and purple – represent power, faith, and justice.

Although we don’t typically decorate Tahoe’s fences with beads, we feel they’re still something to look at and worth celebrating.
