Thanks for stopping by and commenting Don. I just got back from downtown, with the lights being turned on exactly at 7:00pm, and to be honest there could not have been any more people down there. The streets were packed, the parking lots packed, and everyone was having a good time. It seems like the 7:00pm lighting works just fine, and gives folks the opportunity to get home from work and get downtown before the official lighting.

On Lagniappe, which was scheduled for 6-9 pm, why in the world would you not turn the lights on at 6 pm? It seems like you missed a great opportunity to attract more people to the downtown area.
