Tansy: Glad you are enjoying the blog! It was a great trip, just looking back at it makes me want to ditch everything and head out on the bike for another 4 months.

Tom cotter: Good points! We have had to resort to those sort of things before, everything always works out somehow. One night we tried to stay behind a church and asked the Father if it was ok. He didn't think it was a good spot for us, so he called the police department, and they let us stay in the local impound lot! The police even let us cook on their stove and watch the evening news in the dispatch office. God I love Louisiana!

As far as the Iron Butt association, we ran into a few of these guys in St. Augustine. We couldn't help but poke a little fun at their motor-powered counterparts.






We also made a stupid video the might at least make you laugh.
