I thought we'd left the hill country behind us in Texas! Louisiana has a lot of swampland, but it has pine-forested hills, too! We climbed up and coasted down for the better part of a day. Andy found a lunch of exciting local delicacies at the Norwood gas station - including a battered, fried ear of corn!
We camped on a sand bar alongside the crystal-clear, gravel-bottomed Tangipahoa River, just outside the town of Amite (pronounced A-Mitt), LA. We stayed up late (for us!) listening to the gurgling river and humming insects and chirping peepers and watching a near-full moon rise in the east.
