Day 1
The highway traffic wasn't bad. Roads through Louisiana, on the other hand, were rough and in need of repair. The only construction that we hit was south of Jackson, Mississippi, though. Our first night's stop was in Florence.
We stayed at Wendy Oaks RV Resort. It wasn't a resort by my definition, but it was cute and I think they gave us the best site in the park - #15 @ $42/night. There were Muskovey ducks all over and the large pond looked like a good place to fish. The sitting area outside our door gave us the opportunity to read a bit. There was some road noise but it didn't bother is, and we slept well.
DAY 2
We got up early and prepares to leave. We did not unhook the truck last night because there wasn't much of a point. Our intention was to eat at the camp anyway. Stephanie checked the weather and there was predicted storms along our route of travel, so we were on the road by 9:30. We hit heavy rains and construction around Hattiesburg and we pulled off at a roadside picnic area for lunch and a pit stop, and to wait it out. These rains seem to be coming from Hurricane Elsa.
We got settled in at Cajun RV in Biloxi - $57/night, and rested with a gentle rain outside. Around 3 pm we left camp to see what there was to see. We are collecting fridge magnets of the places we go, so we went to a souvenir shop and got one for Biloxi. Then, it was to Beauvoir for a tour of the Jefferson Davis home and presidential library and museum. It was an excellent tour! They closed at 5 pm so we shall return tomorrow for a visit to the grounds, cemetery, and book store.
After supper of bacon and eggs, we visited the beach. Then home, showers, and bed for preparations for another day.
