Louisiana Wetlands

As we entered Louisiana, I saw a sign that called the state "America's Welands". I can certainly attest to that. Our only stop was an overnight in a WalMart parking lot.  Our drive was on roads elevated on stilts over miles of byou and wetlands. I think we drove a good 50 miles before the highway hit the ground. But that didn't last long before we were back on an elevated surface over water, of course. The northern part of the state is drier, I'm told. It was pretty, in it's own way, and I saw a lot of wetland birds.
John is anxious to get to Texas. Since it is a large state it will take us some time to traverse. There are things he wants to see and do. I, on the otherhand, am looking forward to Arizona.
Onward...
