White sand beach surprise

Day 162
New Orleans LA- Pass Christian MS

Leaving home is never easy. Spend just a couple of days in one spot and things start to get comfortable. You learn your way around a bit and know exactly what to expect when you get home. For us it was a security patrolled parking lot at a casino. There was plenty of room to walk the dog and even sit out on the grass. Today however, we don't know where home is. It makes your heart sink a little each time. We're leaving a safe space and trading it for another night of unknown. One thing I will take away is our interaction with the Louisiana locals. A friendly face has greeted us around every corner. Southern charm still exists down here. It made us feel welcome everywhere we went, even in downtown New Orleans.

Rumbling down the highway Penny is enjoying the easy journey. Sea level elevation and flat land make for easy going. I'm watching the instant MPG readout bounce up and down between 7.5 and 8.5 mpg. I can't ask for more out of the gas big block. She purrs along at 63 mpg and 2,200 rpms, all the while pushing a 26k pound brick down the highway. Penny is getting full and needs to take a dump. Typically that means she also is a little thirsty and ready to take on 50 gallons of water. Utility services come compliments of the Mississippi welcome center.

We roll back out to the highway and curve down to the gulf shoreline. We enter Pass Christian and grab ourselves a Wal-Mart for the night. Take a few steps out of the parking lot and you are on the beach. Great googly moogly Mississippi, you are beautiful.

You can literally walk to the beach from Wal-Mart
A pretty little town on the gulf turned out to be a white sand beach surprise. Guess that means having some trepidation about leaving the casino parking lot was in vain after all. Life on the road... could be worse.
