Here we see Carla (r.) and her friend Gail, the Queen of their Red Hat Society chapter (The Wild West Women of Weatherford) as the group assembles to board buses for a costume party at Mardi Gras World in New Orleans.
Douglas A. Kerr: Gail and Carla on the way to Mardi Gras World
The event is an activity of the annual International Convention of the Red Hat Society, a social order for women over 50 (it has a special branch for those not yet that age).
Carla's red dress and purple headgear, the reverse of the normal code for Red Hat regalia, is because this is Carla's birthday month.
Mardi Gras World is an operation of Blaine Kern Studios, one of the premier makers of parade floats including those for the annual Mardi Gras parade in New Orleans. The parties will see the back story of the design and construction of these fabulous floats.
Best regards,
Doug
