Not Far Enough

We awoke on Friday morning to pouring rain and it rained or fogged over the rest of the day and almost our entire drive. At one point the fog was so dense the visibility was only a few hundred yards.  We stopped in Shreveport about 4 and the weather was considerably nicer than back home.  It was nice to sit outside and have a cocktail while grilling a steak.  After dinner I was able to decorate the RV for Christmas

After some research we determined that there was not much we wanted to see in Shreveport so we headed on down to Lake Charles.  

I got to help John wash the RV and Jeep before doing a quick look around the Sam Houston Jones State Park situated on the Calcasieu River.  We went into town to dine at a typical cajun fish joint. We then drove around looking at holiday light displays near the civic center and the marina where we saw about a dozen boats extravagantly lit with Christmas lights.

About time you got out of town. I was tiring of seeing you around all the time. Glad you are feeling better Pam!
