Hammond to Bogalusa, Louisiana (Last Day in LA)

Short ride day today, only 55 miles. Much welcomed relief after 87 miles yesterday.   It was a beautiful day again, cool in the morning and HOT by afternoon.   The azaleas are in full bloom here in Louisiana.  (photo) The dogs were out again in full force.  Had several incidents, but everyone got away from the territorial dogs.  Must mention the cajun cuisine.   We are all enjoying great lunches of catfish, crawfish, and poboys.  Tomorrow we will be crossing the border into Mississippi.  Second photo is of two women I ride with most of the time. Two more weeks and I will be in St. Augustine.
