We finished up the homemade cinnamon roles and bran muffins I brought and just about finished with the homemade Irish Soda bread. Heaven forbid I should have to buy breakfast carbs at some point but that’s life. On yesterday’s boatContinue reading “Day 12 New Orleans to St. Bernard State Park”

Today was the start of another exciting trip for us.
