Wednesday - April 4 - Today was a wet day, we had a lot of rain while driving this morning. We had some rain between the park and the ferry, then it stopped while we were on the ferry then started again shortly after we got off the ferry and it really rained hard for a while. Fortunately by early afternoon we ran out of it but never saw the sun. Right after we crossed on the ferry the temperature dropped down to the low 60’s and at one point it was in the 50’s but by the time we stopped it was back to 63. Haven’t had it this cool in a long time!!

We drove to Abbeville, LA where we are staying at Betty’s RV Park until Monday. We drove mainly the back roads and they were on the whole very good - we hit about 20 miles where the road wasn’t great but it still sounds better than what I-10 is in spots and there isn’t a lot of traffic on these roads and you see more of the country. We passed miles of ponds and wondered what they were growing, Betty informed me they are crawfish farms. I also think there were some rice paddies as there is talk about this being a large rice area. We will find out when we go out exploring.
