I\u2019ve been so blessed meeting such good people on my\u00a0travels. The last eight days have flown past and it was good to be grounded, but the wanderlust and road have been calling my name\u00a0the last day or two and it was time to be heading south. Towards New Orleans (sort-of) and on to Florida. Then up the coast to Maine, unless I\u00a0head west. Or go to Maine then back to Florida, it\u2019s kind of hot down here right now. Hope to spend a few days in the back country and do some exploring around the bayous. It\u2019s hard to do while pulling the trailer so I&#8217;m\u00a0looking for a place to camp for a few days and head out with just the truck or on the bike. It\u2019s still kind of scarier heading down a dirt road that keeps getting smaller and smaller with 26 feet of airstream behind me\u00a0and the possibility of no turn arounds in front of me. I believe it is possible to detach the airstream from the truck and using the metal wheel and a come-a-long turn the airstream around in a very small area, but as yet I have not tested this theory and probably should before I\u00a0take any really small roads.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/heather-banana-spider.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"321\" \/><br \/>\nHand and a Banana Spider<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July 10, 2004 Bourg La Grand Bois Campground Made a formal Newman Family portrait this morning and after sad good byes and promises to stay in touch I\u00a0was on my\u00a0way again.
