The gate closed behind them. It was the the beginning of their new life in that house in New Orleans; the wrought iron gate with the heart on it that shielded the home from the street. The climbing foliage on the side door and back of the house was called 'character.' The gravel driveway, the bright white shutters, and the citrus tree were just a few of the home's attractions.

"Nola" nightlife, the beautiful summers in Louisiana, and their love for all things unique were instant attractions. The couple first saw this house on vacation, and it wasn't for sale. They dreamed about it everytime they visited; for Mardi Gras, and Saints games. On the way to eat beignets and crawfish... It finally was theirs, and they traveled far to live there. It was their new love. The gate closed behind them...and life began.
