4:20 a.m., Houston, Tx. 1866 miles by car since Chicago. Time to go home.

I think its worth it....

[1] We got here!

 [2] Texas Grasshopper and Happy Irishman

 [3] Snake!!!!!

 [4] Fellini (clip to follow, perhaps)

 [5] Gulf Coast. We've come a long way, and this is a great place to
land. Pelicans abound.

 [6] Ferry to Galvaston.

Chronological order is violated here. We hit the swamp before New Orleans.

 [1] Anyone remember Down by Law?

 [2] Hunting for "stuff". Mostly mud.

 [3] One of many alligators we met. I have lots of photos and video....

 [4] Cajun living. I'm tempted....

[1] We also found Fred's, Jax, "Adam's Self".....

 [2] Adam was so eager to see the Mississippi...

 [3] So we took a ferry.....

 [4] Two voodoo shops. If you don't know them, they defy description.
I bought myself a treat.

 [5] Bourbon street by day...

 [6] and by night...

 [7] all 3 did well here.

One of our first finds in New Orleans! Didn't buy it, but its a match!

[1] is our motel. There's a story to go with this place. Several, in
fact, including one that is all our own.

 [2] Good food. Of course.

 [3] Not so huge ass, but it's a good sign

 [4] Fred lowering the tone. I got a curse placed on me for this, and
since then, we have been chased by hoards of christians in matching
T-shirts.

 [5] Horses ass (pl)

 [6] Bourbon Street. An education nobody needs.

Stopped outside New Orleans, in Hammond, LA. Let off some fireworks,
attracting some basically sympathetic police attention:)

[1] Taking care of business in a flash!
[2] Outside the mansion
[3] WTF? Long before there was Michael Jackson, there was Elvis
....

[1] We probably got all our ticks here. That's our car from the outside...
[2] ...and from the inside. An environmental disaster.
[3] Fireworks and ham..
[4] and the Confederation is alive and well.
