(I can't get the first photo to locate where I want it to be in this post, and I'm too tired to figure it out!)
First day on the road. It'll take me a couple of days to get my routine going, and another few days to figure out the edits on the GoPro videos. I might have put one in here this evening if I wasn't staying at a casino. Oh dear. More later.

| First stop, just west of Tallahassee. I like to get out and walk around about every 90 minutes or so |
 |
| Waffle House, Chipley FL. My favorite place to eat when on the road - until I run out of them. |
 |
| Blue Angels. Just east of Pensacola. Also my photo of the day for CY365 |

| And I DID make it to Mississippi |
I don't normally drive this far in a day, but I want to make a side trip in Texas while on the way to Dallas to see my friend Vicky so I'm rushing just a little bit.
My friend Kathi suggested I stay at Beau Rivage here in Biloxi. Hotels.com had a great rate, so here I am. I got checked in then had to go check out the casino. Lo and behold! In about 20 minutes I won enough to pay for my stay! I cashed in and came back to my room!
The great thing on the day was the pink bull dozer. Or land mover. Or some such huge piece of equipment. I guess it was being towed to the job (or maybe from), but I have never seen a pink dozer before! It is, of course, to support breast cancer research. "rent pink". I have it on the GoPro, so as soon as I figure that baby out I'll post a pic.
It has been a good first day. I'm not too tired, but after that short time in the casino, I smell like a week-old ashtray. Oh well - there's a shower in my room!
I might make it all the way to Texas tomorrow, or I might not get out of Louisiana. It's Mardi Gras season!
Thanks for stopping by.
Mom and dad stay at Beau Rivage there all the time. They love it, hope you have a great time.
