Day 52, Wednesday, November 04, 2009







Our plan for the day was to take the free shuttle to the French Quarter, do some looking around, and take a bus tour. And guess what - that is exactly what we did. We had a great day. In addition to the quarter, we saw other parts of town including the Ninth Ward that received so much flooding after the hurricane, the downtown area, above ground cemetery, the garden district with its fine homes, the Superdome, and shopping districts.






Tomorrow we begin the trek to Sante Fe, NM. We don't plan to do any sight seeing in Texas on this trip, I hope to get there in about 2 days. To minimize risk of another tire failure, I put the new tire I bought yesterday in place of the last original tire, saving the old tire for the spare. Like the last tire I replaced, it shows wear, but not as bad as the other tire.

  1. You know... some people collect thing like spoons, t-shirts, and the like when they go vacationing. You have to be the first and possibly only person that collects tires!

  2. Mr. & Mrs. Ladd, I was just thinking, what an awesome record this will be for your children, grandchildren, great grandchildren & beyond. Glad you've been relatively safe up to this point.
