Dorothy Asks Me to Drive Her to New Orleans

We got up at five AM to drive down to New Orleans. Dorothy had to do some grocery shopping for spices and things we ain't got in Harper. We drove out on the state road until we got to I55, got on it, and headed south. The weather were good and it was clear sailing till we got to all them bridges over the swamp. They has to have bridges down there even over dry land cause you never know when it gonna be wet. It were real pretty watching the sun come up over the swamp lands. The road seemed rougher to me down there. Dorothy has to go ever so often to get these special things I was telling about. And most of the time I drive her down. She don't feel comfortable in Louisiana by herself. Peoples is just different when you reach the state line. It's like you in a different country. But they do have some good cooking and things to eat down there. We got down to where we joined the highway what comes from Texas about seven o'clock. Then we seen the tall building of New Orleans.
Tomorrow: New Orleans
