Rain Rain go away


Well we are out of Texas, thought that state would never go away. We crossed in to Louisana but they didn't have a sign, so no facebook photo. We left Lindale Texas this morning about 7:00 with a promise of rain on the horizon. We had a dry morning and it was a great ride. Was not too hot with the overcast sky so we made good time and was comfortable. We stopped at Wal-Mart so Jan could buy more lucas for the bike, he likes to add it to the gas. He says it's a mechanic in a bottle and he'd rather ride than work on it. We ate at a great restaurant right near Wal-mart, Wagon Wheel, kinda like a Texas Roadhouse and they let you autograph their wall. After we ate we took off again. We had gone through a few little showers and didn't have on our rain gear so we decided not to put them on yet. Well we finally had to put the rain suit on and boy did we need it, more and more rain. It seemed the further we went the heavier it got. The roads were getting really dangerous, water standing on them and all. A few times I felt the tires skiing on the water. scary! We finally made it to Opelousas and found this Super 8. We looked like some drowned rats when we pulled in. This bed feels so cozy right now. It felt good to get dry then we ordered Chinese and they delivered to our door. now relax and get to sleep early...gotta get back to my Jonas...st
