On the way to New Orleans, we stopped to visit two national parks, Big Lagoon, one of the best parks on the coast of the USA, and Tarkiln Bayou Park, featuring the rare species of plants and some carnivores.

Well, Liz, Cathy and TJ had the margaritas. I stuck with Sprite for this one. TJ caught a few waves at the beach even though there was hardly anything to catch. Then we went back to Liz's where Cathy took control as chef. She and Liz made this awesome bruschetta ...

... lights and all tons of cars. We all got off and proceeded east on 90. To my horror, the rains came in buckets and 4 minues later i was soaked alll the way thru. Waterproof Gear...my ass!

After two hours i'd made it 7 miles on SR 90. I got back to I-10 and was the only one on the road for miles and miles. I gave it more gas, which did two things: first, i froze my tail off. Secondly, I couldnt see anything due my faceshiled fogging up. It just got too dangerous ...

... my hand is barely sore and not red at all. Very cool invention and costs about 5 bones.

As for todays ride, it was uneventful. I left Pearland TX around 1130am local time. Got really sleepy after an hour or so and pulled off to have a snack my aunt packed for me. After that i was fine for a few more hours but then I started nodding off again. Son of a! Exited in Lafayette LA and had some greasy ass chicken. I threw most of it ...

... familiar shaped dorsal fin broke the surface, followed by another, then two more. You wouldn’t flamin’ read about it. A suitable level of smugness came over me.

I can talk to marine animals!!! Well ,the dolphins anyway. The Manta’s are from a different social scene and they’re very clique-y. The Loggerheads are just plain rude, cute but rude. They just ignored me point blank and swam away. I did manage to bond with a jelly fish as well, but ...

Leeroy experienced a road trip U.S.A style 6:30am straight to the coach with a stop at Pensacola beach nice white sands e.t.c. for lunch & Avo...too bad there was a thunder storm warning so beach was closed for the afternoon so ended up a 8 hour straight drive.. the seas were angry that day my friends.

I met my good friend Mark in Gulf Shores to mark the bookend of my trip. We had a great time with his family doing the normal Gulf Shores things like lots of fishing, talking and whatnot. I did get a few pictures here, but at this ...

... the sea gulls with little bit. They did and called us telling us that there was lots of cranes there. Well, we was in Foley already and turned around. I am glad they called because I did get some good pictures there. Like I said this trip was just too short. Our little sweetheart grand-baby was the best, sweetest little one on this trip! Thank You Father for a wonderful time with the kids.

My flight departed from PNS at 6:25 a.m. Big thanks to Mary for getting me to the airport by 5:20. While checking in, I ran into my old boss and his wife who were heading out west for a week of touring. My Atlanta layover was a couple of hours so I had time to walk the terminal, smoke, have coffee, and people-watch. My biggest challenge is staying away from folks on their cell phones, almost an impossibility these days. And how do many of the conversations go? "I'm at the ...

... was a lot of hurricane relief effort going on while I was down there; a lot of hard work and cleaning of the beaches I would later enjoy so much. I also spotted my first shark here and ended up finding the father of my son Jayden.I also got to sit and watch MANY evolutions practiced by the BLUE ANGELS.Overall I had a blast, and hated it.I was there through 3 tropical storms and transferred during another.
