On The Road Again!

We left the house at 10 am.   Chuck and Lorraine followed us out.   They are heading to Victoria, TX to visit with our Friends, Richard/Patsy King....   We head out to Kinder, Louisiana.  We will try to get a site at Coushatta Casino.  The day was cool but sunny.  The high was about 50.

Tell Manuel that there are good fuel prices at the Walmart in Amite, LA...... close to the Mississippi border on I-55 going to Red Bay.
