By Jackson, however, the weather reached the 60’s, and the snowy ground was replaced by greening grass. When we made it to Baton Rouge, we were ready to stretch our legs. There is a levy walk along the Mississippi River from downtown to LSU. It felt so good to be outside without a heavy coat, breathing in the scene with all of our senses.
We worked up quite an appetite, and Louisiana is a great place to eat oysters—something we don’t quite trust in Wisconsin. We started off with grilled oysters and then oyster po’ boy sandwiches. We ate at a table by an open door, and there was “open mic” music on the sidewalk. This was the most entertainment that we have enjoyed in over a year.
Next stop: Galveston

Alrriiiiiiggghhhtt!!!
And what about the accommodations? Can you recommend any places? Are you doing AirBnb?
Hmmm, no, I can’t for Baton Rouge. We were still on the dog-friendly Budget motel tour. I can tell you that Red Roof Inn and Motel 6 have no added pet fees. La Quinta generally charges $20 extra, unless Julia forgets to tell them about Callie. I do have an airbnb recommendation for later on during the trip but that will have to wait until my posts catch up to the present. I’m a little behind.
