Road Trip!

Hello everyone,

I hope you all having a great weekend!

First I need to apologies for running

a little behind on posting anything

but I have a great excuse

"Fall Break"

and 

a so needed and well deserved

vacation!!!

Fall is the time for us to head south,

spend some time with family and friends,

and get some well deserved RNR!

And heading south means going home to

Louisiana, St. Tammany and 

the beautiful North Shore of Lake Pontchartrain!

 This year we were fortunate that the cabins at

Fontainbleau State Park

reopened after they were destroyed by Hurricane Issac 

and we were able to rent one of the cabins right on/in the lake. 

 A little peace of paradise on the North Shore.

 I took a few books and my knitting along

but I have to admit neither reading nor knitting got done,

the magic and peacefulness of this place just captures you,

you just sit and try to soak it all in. 

 And we did a little kayaking...

 ... fishing at sunrise...

...and crabbing.

Don't worry, Mr. Crab was released after

his picture was taken!

I don't think he is smiling!

 The cabins.

There even is a little beach in the park.

Magical Live Oaks everywhere.

 And no trip home is complete unless we stop 

in the "Big Easy".

Lee Circle with the Super Dome in the background.

 If you ever in New Orleans you should take the time to stop

at the WWII museum.

We spent all day and I think we still missed a few exhibits.

 And last but not least,

one of my favorite things

the "St. Charles Trolley". 

Sadly we are back home,

back to work and school,

but we are always looking forward to our next

road trip 

to

Louisiana!

To ya'll a wonderful weekend

and a great week!

Thanks for stopping by!
