the last stop

clouds on the road

so today was mostly driving, and then more driving. we hit very bad construction and traffic on route 10 which delayed us and made our day much longer. the clouds were beautiful though and the weather was clear and hot. i enjoyed every rest stop more than usual. :-) we stayed at a campground off the beaten path in louisiana called the tchefuncte family campground. the road leading to the campground was a two mile course gravel road that covered the entire car in a layer of brown dust. if the dust were darker it would have looked like cars do after a volcano errupts. the poor neon has been through so much!

the campground staff were friendly and nice, but the swampy environ of louisiana breeds many mosquitos to torment your body. i made cooking go as quickly as possible. the bathrooms were clean and they had wi-fi, an added bonus. we tried to web cam with inbo but only managed to get about five minutes out of the connection. the wi-fi bandwidth was just a bit too slow there. we did get to see nathan spin inbo around and around in his office chair for a few minutes though, so it was well worth it. :-)

the next morning we packed up quickly and got on the road. the day was long but the highway heading north was smooth travelling and we didn’t run into much construction at all. we arrived in atlanta sometime between 6 and 7pm on march 10th… i can’t wait to find a shower and a bed!
