On the road again Monday March 17 to Natchitoches, LA.
Throughout 2014 they are celebrating their 300th anniversary.

Lasyone’s Meat Pie Restaurant is an authentic soulful Creole Cuisine experience.

We went to the local library so I could work on the blog. At 4:30 we drove out to a campground only to find a road with deep ruts of mud. We were NOT going to travel on it. There's logging done around here. We guessed the logging truck traveled recently on this road. With the recent rain the road really got chewed up. Soooo, we spent the night at Walmart in Natchitoches.
