And Moving is coming to an End

Though not before the current leg of the trip, which has taken us to Chicago.  Chicago?  I thought they were moving to Texas you might be asking yourself.  Well, a great friend of mine is getting married in Chicago over this weekend.  They are having a Hindu and Christian ceremony tomorrow.  It looks to be a fun day.  Tonight Dawn had her first Chicago deep dish pizza.  While she didn't say she'll trade it for NY style pizza, she did like it.  The trip to the airport was actually uneventful, though similar in milage College Station to Houston is a much easier drive than Athens to Atlanta, if for no other reason, the state road between the two cities has no traffic lights.

The Pod also arrived today.  And once again, I couldn't have gotten better customer service from them.  The driver was in high spirits and we joked has he dropped it off.  (Pictures to follow sometime.)  Even helped to get the door open, as our stuff shifted to press against the rolling door, making it tough to open.  So once again, PODS rocks.

The road trip ended long.  We did manage to get to see the Muffler Man in the New Orleans suburbs.  I wanted to see the Oak Alley plantation in Lavacherie, but it was $15 to get inside.  Forget that.  We took some pictures outside of the grounds, climbed the levee to look at the river, then ate lunch at B&C seafood.  There's the place to go.  Skip the plantations, go to the B&C.

Back on I-10, and over the Mississippi, we did manages to see sugar cain, oil rigs, and cows.  Dawn thrashed me in Cows and Cemeteries.  (I won today, tough.)  Lots of miles, I drove further west then  I ever have in one continuous trip.  Huzzah for personal milestones.
