Saying Good Bye to Gumbo!
It’s Friday morning and I awakened to several cells of stormy weather making their way through the South. Overnight, Baton Rouge, was hit with golf ball sized hail, lots of rain, and strong winds. Keeping an eye on the radar, I can see this storm is tracking in our intended path. Time for a new plan!
After a long night in the French Quarter, I could do with a delayed starting time, so I let Jonathan continue to sleep, make some java and devise a new riding plan, one that will keep us as dry as possible. I am fighting off a nasty head cold and the possibility of touring in the rain all day is not something I am looking forward to, but I have been in this situation before and it always works out. Added to the fact, the Concierge told me the city had banned motorcycles, and RV’s, from using the bridge this morning,which should make getting out of here somewhat of a challenge.
