St.Francisville to Hammond, Louisiana

We took off  at the crack of dawn this morning because we had 87 LONG miles to do.  (This photo was of the group that stayed at the INN)  It was a long day.   However, the roads were good and the weather was cool in the morning, but quite warm by late afternoon.   We got into our hotel around 4:15pm.  I did not take any photos today because we were mostly on country roads with not much to photograph.   The big excitement for me was having a dog jump out of a ditch while I was passing him on my bike and almost bite my ankle.  I screamed and yelled scaring him away.   It amazes me that I did not fall of the bike and become dog food.  Dogs have been a BIG problem for us.  Every day someone experiences a situation like mine where a dog is trying to attack a cyclist.  NO leash laws out in the middle of no where, I guess??
