Feb. 6th, 2012 07:43 pmHey folks! I'm back! Did you miss me? I would have checked in earlier but for a couple of reasons: (1)no wi-fi access and (2)I was getting debauched. Woohoo! And all I'll say on that note, is that I earned the Mardi Gras beads hanging from the rearview mirror of my car. :P
When last I checked in, I was in Louisiana heading for New Orleans. Well, I didn't stop in New Orleans because the weather was atrocious. Torrential rains, so bad that, for a while there, I contemplated gathering two of every animal into the back of the car! For a while there, I was genuinely worried I might not make it out of Louisiana. The storm dogged me as far as the state line then seemed to lose interest. I washed ashore in Biloxi, which was sunny and warm and much more fun than I anticipated. ;)
This morning, I got a late start and hauled ass east. I zipped through MS and into AL, pausing to admire Battleship Park and the Carnival Museum in Mobile, before leaving I-10 and driving to Pensacola. I had planned on taking 98 east, along the coast, but a combination of old drivers and the 45 MPH speed limit drove me crazy so I headed north and got on the Interstate again.
I swear those western speed limits (80 MPH!)have ruined me. Ruined me!
And now I'm in the lovely town of Bonifay, FL where I'm doing laundry and chatting with the cute redheaded clerk working the front desk.
More later! - MEL
