Saturday, March 26, my birthday

Missed some updates for Thursday.  Thursday we stayed in Baton Rouge, La.  We have decided that La has just a lot of unusable land.  Miles and miles of swamp land.  One bridge we passed over was 20 miles long.  Not much traffic until we got 20 miles from our destination, of course.  Traffic came to a stop and Renie's phone indicated traffic was stopped for 30/40 miles ahead.  Luckily for us we were at an off ramp and drove the back roads of La to Baton Rouge.  Not much room on them roads.  and with the traffic stopped on the Hwy, we were not the only folks that decided to drive thru the country.  Cops were at every intersection directing traffic.  at one crossing, I hit a significant dip that pulled the power line to the toad off.  Kind of shook us up, and then the whole rid started shacking like I had a flat. We pulled off in an empty lot and a friend by the name of Keith Ride drove up and helped evaluate the issue.  We found nothing.  All I can figure is that I must have picked up something between the rear dualizes, and it dropped out.  Nothing was damaged and nothing wrong.  We missed our free camp site with Harvest Host, but found a nice place to stay at a KOA.  

Friday:  Nothing eventual at all.  Just a long day to get to our other Harvest Host camp at a car Museum.  Miss that too.  Very long day of 10 hrs of driving.  But, we found a Cracker Barrel that had overnight sites, had a great chicken/shrimp dinner and hit the hey by 9pm.  Tomorrow, we will be at our camp in Florida for a couple of weeks. Looking forward to a bit if rest and seeing Kennedy space center.
