MOVING ON TOWARDS TEXAS

Tuesday, September 7 - After 8-days at the beach, we pulled out of the Elks Lodge and headed West. The Gulf was rather calm on our last day. Many of the holiday crowd had gone home. It was a beautiful day.

Our intentions were to stop in Livingston, LA, but we decided to continue on to Coushatta Casino Campground in Kinder, LA. We were here in June of this year as we were heading East, (Past blog about Coushatta). We enjoyed the campground and the casino, so decided to stop here for a few days. We can only think of one small negative about this campground…20 miles off I10. The road in is bumpy but the road back to I10 is smooth…go figure! It is so clean, clubhouse is great, laundry room and restroom excellent, sites large, casino shuttle picks up at your site, just a great place.

Our current site is #77.

Looking down our street.

We averaged 9.5 miles per gallon today. Our MPG have definitely improved since our servicing at the Freightliner Center in October.

Man-O-Man is I-10 a bumpy mess all across Louisiana westbound until you pass Lafayette. Its a constant bump, bump at every expansion joint. Darn near rattles our house to pieces. I hate that!!! That road should lose it's Interstate rating and be downgraded to a secondary road. I guess Louisiana is spending their tax money on Katrina rebuild rather than Interstate Highways......Oh well, end of rant!

We visited the casino in the evening. NOT such a good night! Marsha was the BIG loser. Now remember…losing $10 to us is BIG. So you now you can guess how much she might have lost. We had a good time in spite of her poor gambling skills.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day! Hope to see y’all back real soon.
