The toy hauler is full of toys (bikes, kayak, quad) and we are off to meet with the FreeRoaders in Louisiana. We decided to travel a few hours and overnight in the Shreveport, La area. There are 5 casinos alongside the Red River in Bossier City and with our luck the RV park at Diamond Jack's was full. For us that is good luck as we got to stay in the parking lot alongside which is where we wanted to be anyway. Why pay $30 for a little electricity we don't need!
We visited Boomtown Casino and Bass Pro Shop and then
wandered along the beautiful new boardwalk they have along the Red River. No vehicles, just walkways among the shops and restaurants. Then we settled in at Diamond Jack's and paid our "camping fees. "

" We stopped at noon yesterday at a great little place in Texarkana, Arkansas, Fat Jack's Oyster Bar, and watched the Razorbacks advance to the finals in the southeast conference basketball tournament while we nibbled on some of their specialties such as catfish and shrimp.
South of Bossier the fresh green of spring greeted us as we pass trees with new young leaves. The red of the maples are interspersed in the forests along I 49. The sun is warm and the temps are in the 70s.
As the French say in cajun country "Laizzes les bon temps rouller!" or Let the good times roll!
