I finally crossed into Louisiana. We drove through Lake Charles, La Fayette, and Morgan City. I drove all night, went through Houma, and continued on to New Orleans. I rested here for a while, thinking about the racial tensions going on. I stopped to see The Cheerleaders, a rally protesting the blacks going to schools with whites. That really upset me.
I had to move on. I was anxious to get home. I stopped at a motel one night and then headed for Jackson, Mississippi and Montgomery, Alabama. Christmas is will be here soon.
The rest of my trip is a blur and I was getting tired of this. I drove as much as I could to get home, not noticing much of anything else along the way.
