All aboard

Last minute alterations to Cole's snowsuit to accommodate the stitches.

And we're off by 5 AM.

First stop is at Roosevelt state park in Mississippi. 2 mile hike does the body good.

Little nap does wonders too.

Next stop : Restoration Park. Monroe, Louisiana. What a gem! A wetland conservation area. 2 miles of trails and boardwalks.

What does not do the body good?  17 hour day driving 850 miles.  We roll in to Gina's farm around 10 PM.
We made it!

Pete has already established squatter's rights.
After a slow start this morning, we're off exploring the farm.

King certainly earned his name.
He's one of 38.

I think I'm in heaven.
