Tuesday we left Baytown and traveled the rest of the way thru Texas along Interstate 10 into Louisiana. Paul traveled the whole thing this trip.
Mile marker 880!
That’s a lot of one state!
Tuesday night we spent in a roadside visitors center near Baton Rouge. The visitor center had a parking area for RV’s where we could really set up camp with the slides out and everything for FREE!!! Of course we stayed. I thought we would get a really great nights sleep because we were off the highway and there were no Big Rigs allowed but about 1 am the storm started. I was awake several hours listening to the rain and thunder and watching the wind and lightening. The storm lasted most of the night but by 8 am everything was pretty clear so we hit the road. We spent last night in FountainBleau State Park on Lake Pontchartrain in Louisiana.
Lake Pontchartrain
20 mile Causeway across the lake to New Orleans
Moss
What kind is it?
It is beautiful here and the lake is huge. We had dinner last night at a great restaurant that had patio seating where we watch what there was of a sunset. Rip by the lake was an excellent choice and I tried something new again! Soft shell crab and fried catfish. Soft shell crab you eat the whole thing. Tastes like crab but the stuff inside I admit I ate around it!!! The catfish was really good.
