Trivia or interesting facts from today's travels:

Today was not much more than just a big road trip. We really
did not stop for much of anything except food and gas. I-10 runs 880 miles though Texas. Today, we drove 740 of that without stopping any longer than 10 minutes at a time. Today's goal was New Orleans. We made it here about 2am Central time on Monday morning. Tomorrow will be the last day touring
we'll be slowly making our way up towards Chattanooga. I really miss the desert right now. The temperatures are the same that they have been for 3 days... only now here in New Orleans, the humidity seems to be about 100% it feels awful compared to the 5% we had in Arizona/New Mexico. Temperatures have been in the mid nineties since Thursday for us. Today's pictures are not too exciting, most were made from a moving jeep.
I'll have to see what I can get a picture of tomorrow for the final web page. All computer and cameras have worked great during the trip. I'll be ready to try this again soon!! See you tomorrow from Louisiana!
