Goodbye Louisiana


We have enjoyed 6 nights near Natchitoches, Louisiana, the original French colony established in 1714. It is also the beginning of El Camino Real de los Tejas, the 300 year old road through Texas to Mexico. Lots of history, a favorite interest of mine.
Tomorrow we'll leave here and head to Newton, Texas. Not a long way, just over 100 miles. Let me say spring is not the best time to travel. We can't go north due to the winter storms and the south has constant violent
thunder storms and many tornadoes. We'll rethink doing a spring trip in the future.
The azaleas are beautiful and fully in bloom.
See you in Texas
