Adventure is in the eye of the beholder, they say. Or is that beauty? Find both, objectively and unabashedly, in full force across our April 2021 Adventure issue. Exactly one year since the first time we had to type the word “coronavirus” into our magazine, we look upon the upcoming spring with a craving for experiences and a more innovative interpretation of the word “adventure” than ever before. Luckily, this is what we do best—finding creative, exhilarating adventures right here in our vibrant region. In this issue, find stories of mountain biking in the bayou and memories of festivals past. Read about some of the country’s most serious brick collectors, Mississippi’s first restaurant, and the New Orleans ingredient central to Vietnamese coffee. Join Arts & Entertainment Editor Alexandra Kennon for a traipse along the Bayou Country Crawfish Trail, or staff writer Lauren Heffker for a day in the Bigfoot Capital of Texas. Plus, as always, so much more.
