Some long overdue pictures

Starting out at the Atlantic Ocean.
















Flea market in North Florida.












North Florida which seemed to last forever.








Finally leaving North Florida on a ferry!









An abandonned McDonald's sign on the Gulf Coast. (The building had been washed out to sea.)














Swamp land in Louisiana.










Lunch. We just get so hungry...










Southern Louisiana -- train track and farms were a famaliar sight.








Entering Texas we were still excited for our long visit, but those smiles faded as the ten long and hot days passed.






Swamp land in Texas? Apparently it is not all desert.








I didn't notice these feedlots with thousands of cattle until I heard someone else complaining about the stench. So as everyone else sprinted by, I stopped to take some pictures. Thanks Iowa!

We were trying to jump in this photo. Needless to say, we failed miserably.













Read the sign. We were not enchanted.

















A much needed break in the middle of nowhere, New Mexico.







Another scenic spot in NM but with a small hint of civilization.






Starving as usual, we had just eaten our daily lunch of PB&J plus anything else we could scrounge for, a friend and I stopped at the side of the road where an Argentinian man was grilling chicken to the beat of 1960s music.
