Baton Rouge is just across the Mississippi River. We had planned on staying there only 2 nights but I found out that 2 of the tires on the truck were on Load Range E and were C which is a lite SUV rated tire. To make a long story short I ended up with 4 new tires at no cost. Even though we were here only a few days had time to see some of the city. The picture of the bridge had a paddle wheel casino in the foreground. We walked around the area and went aboard the casino. Guess what, its just another casino. We went to the Bluebonnet Swamp which is in the middle of town. They have a nice visitor center there and give you a map of the swamp to you can walk several paths. It was enjoyable to wander along the trails and look for the wildlife. (There are no alligators in the swamp which but a damper on my plan to score on Jackie's life insurance. So I wasted money on buying that lucky ham for her to wear around neck. ) We stayed at a rv park that is a county park and had 60 spots and only 6-7 rigs there. We are now in next to Jackson Mississippi visiting Jackie's aunt. She has taken us on several tours of the area, so we have got to see a few of the small town around Jackson. We move on to New Orleans tomorrow and will be spending a week there. Weather has been cool during the day and cold at night. Yesterday was warmer and comfortable. Pepper is liking it here because she can walk around without a leash.
