These photos were taken from our vehicle moving at at least 60 mph so if they aren't very clear so be it! The photo on the left is a Bayou in Western Louisiana-think it was Bayou Tesche-and the bridge over the bayou was at least 15 miles long-am NOT exagerating. The bayou was pretty neat, but the bridge or elevated highway-whatever it was called-was really incredible. The photo on the right is a rice paddy-not sure what the markers in the water were-didn't see any signs-so will have to Google it to get some information.
Left Biloxi, Ms at 9:30 am and drove I-10 west-all day! Lunch break was at a Bass Pro Shop in Baton Rouge, LA, which we love to check out wherever. (Hank had been looking for a very small gas grill for the camper and we found a small Coleman which can also be used as a cooktop or a griddle depending on which insert we use. It now resides in the Tin Tent and it cooked our burgers for dinner this evening.) During the afternoon we encountered 3 separate thunderstorms with heavy rain each time. Thought we might have to pull over once or twice as the rain came down so hard, but never actually had to stop. When we arrived at the Texas border we visited the welcome center for lots of material and talked with a little blond texan with the cutest accent-she obviously loved her job and was excited to tell us places in Texas that we shouldn't miss seeing! We stopped at a large and very nice campground in Beaumont, Tx which took our Passport America-that has saved us 50% each place we've stayed so far!
Even though we have no "destination" or schedule-we are going to San Antonio tomorrow-another 310 miles! Sky was gorgeous tonight-another hot and sunny day forecast for tomorrow!
