Accidental Rest Day

5 September 2010 --Sitting in Hattiesburg route 11 from Lumberton to Nicholson looked like the perfect 41 mile ride to set up my entry to New Orleans. Wrong. It turns out what little shoulder there is is ribbed to warn people when they are running off the road. Spent the rest of the day finding and setting up tomorrow's ride. We're going to take old route 90 out of Mississippi and across Louisiana to Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Reserve. It's all water along the way and will leave a 12-mile journey into NOLA the following day.

Thought for the day: If I have learned (and relearned [etc]} anything it's the old military adage that no plan survives the first day of war.
