We Can Hear the Banjo's Tonight!!!

WHERE ARE WE? Heberts Boat Landing,  Kaplan, Louisiana

We are heading on down the road today.  We have about 800 kms to go to get to Magnolia Beach.  We want to spend a few days there visiting and chilling on the beach.  We want to hit the interstate today and then swing down along the Gulf for the remainder of the trip.  

There is lots of Bayou country we go through on I-10.  There is about a 10 mile stretch that is all bridge over swamp.  It makes for pretty country.

We did a quick stop at Camping World to dump and take on water as well as buy a few things we need like a sewer hose and some chairs.  I will show you the chairs when we sit on them later.  Did you know that if you have Good Sams, you can dump and take on water at any Camping World, and they all supposedly have them.  You can also get good deals on propane.

Then we turned off I-10 onto 35.  Just a nice country road heading south.  We will take it down to 90 before turning toward Galveston.   We went by this grave yard and I had to take a couple pictures.  The graves are all above ground around here and you would think it has something to do with ground water.  Nope, it is just how a lot of the Spanish and French did graves in Europe and they brought the traditions here.  Makes for an interesting cemetery.  

We drove for another hour or so and ended up at a place about a mile off the highway called Hebert boat landing.  Its just a parking lot but there are lots of crawfish boats here.  We didn't see a lot of action but there are a couple people hanging around and a few small boats going in and out.  

Then about dark a big crawfish boat loaded up on a big trailer.  He had to fold all the arms in before he left.  Quite a performance with his wife helping him.  Yes he did say a couple bad words!!!

So that was it for today.  Caught a pretty sunset here at Hebert Boat Landing.  Good Nite!!!
