The Way Home

We had been warned by the staff at the State Park to not arrive via the levy road from the south as it is quite an adventure and not paved. Those using GPSs for navagation are in for surprises. Of course with a Land Rover that spelled adventure and fun so... From Jeanette we headed south and then finally crossed a bayou or canal and then continued along on the other side with lovely homes and then a few more turns and a crossing across a bridge that was narrow and I don't know how much weight it can handle and then onto the levy road! For 12 miles we followed the bayou, Lake Fausse, "camps" of all sorts along the water, a number number of bee hive boxes (groups of about 30 hives), pickup trucks and a number of people driving their ATV's along the top of the levy. We drove through semi dry areas and lots of mud ruts and some were pretty deep and we knew not to stop. Today we just might need to find a car wash or wait for tomorrow's rain!
Saw this bicycle contraption in Jeanette - not sure what it was or is but suspect he was collecting cans.
