Hot Times in LA

Jan 9: Today was beautiful. The temperature was about 70 degrees under sunny skies. The morning was spent on maintenance. I did two loads of wash, Helen cleaned the RV. We have been invaded by small ants and have tried several methods to get rid of them. Once the chores were done, we got a “drive yourself” tape from the office and headed into Cajun country. Our first stop was the Tabasco factory. It is located on top of a salt dome south of Lafayette. We had lunch at the store and had a disappointing factory tour.

We visited New Iberia and then headed back to the RV. On the way we stopped at a Daiquiri drive through shop. They are all over this part of LA. Drinking and driving does not seem to be a problem. We also stopped at a Cajun Asian take out store and bought dinner. I had shrimp and rice and Helen had fried oysters and shrimp and rice.

The Internet was so slow that it was not worth connecting. We ate supper, watched television and went to bed early. Tomorrow we drive to San Antonio. -- Howard
