We then rode on to New Orleans, went through the bayo on 90E. Look up Fort Pike, interesting history as well. Rode down Bourbon Street but didnt get any pictures, that place is crazy. Picture is on Canal Street.

From New Orleans, we rode north to Baton Rouge, then north towards Vicksburg and Natchez. We toured a few plantations.

We left Natchez and went to Vicksburg, thinking we could eat somewhere downtown on the river. No place was open, or the business was simply not there. So semi had his first ever Whataburger. LOL, This was a cannon position overlooking the river.

We left Vicksburg and did some sight seeing on the way. Google, Poverty Point State Park. The we took back roads to El Dorado Arkansas where we stayed the night. We got up Tuesday morning and did 400 miles of back roads to Eureka Springs. These were before lunch.

We stayed in Eureka, and then had breakfast at another org favorite location. As we parted ways to head home, we look forward to the next trip and the adventure that will surely follow. Thank you my brother from another mother, it was a blast, and I appreciate you letting us tag along. It certainly was an adventure.

Re: The most interesting trio........and pictures of our trip. 5200 miles and 22 stat

As jealous as we are were during your EPIC journey through 22 states, I think it's safe to say we were all thrilled to see and hear the stories along the way. It was such a special surprise to see you in my tiny town and stay for the night! I truly didn't want you to leave :laugh: I'm kind of clingy like that...

I hope one day Omar and I can take a journey like this, and with you guys because I know it would be so full of laughs and stories and truly once in a lifetime!! Thanks for including us as a brief stop on your trip, and for all the pics!!

I know you love lighthouses now James...this one is for sale one county over from us, if you're interested :whistle: 56 Shore Drive, Mathews, VA 23109 - MLS# 104612 | ERA Bay and River Real Estate

We enjoyed it as well. You know, we are planning next year, maybe Canada or a Northwest State Park tour, you guys are welcome to come! We laughed every day and had a ball. Thank you for letting us stay for the night and we do wish we could have stayed longer. You guys need to get down to Saint Augustine.
I like that lighthouse, and the price is right. No idea you could buy one that cheap, now to just find a job so I could move....

Another interesting trio fact: If you dont have time to make the entire trip, we will drop you off at an airport to fly home. Wonder why there are not Bourbon Street pics? :whistle:
