Weather: low in Coker, Alabama was 28 degrees, high in West Monroe, Louisiana was 73 degrees, clear skies
Carolyn's visit to the doctor went well this morning. Many tests have been performed, and so far the news is positive. The doctor is pleased with the results of some injections she placed in one of the nodules two weeks ago, and decided to inject all of them with the same medicine. The next visit is in a month, and we are going to take advantage of that time to go to Texas for our physicals and dental checkups, as well as visit family and friends.
We left Coker this morning at 1020 hours, which was a little later than we wanted, but everything still worked out okay. We are spending the night in an RV campground in Arcadia, Louisiana. Traffic was not bad, the road was in good shape except for a couple of areas, and the weather was perfect for traveling.
Arcadia is located off Interstate 20, about 50 miles east of Shreveport. The word "arcadia" means beautiful hills, and the area is hilly and beautiful. This area is best known for being the place where the infamous outlaws of the 1930s, Bonnie and Clyde, were ambushed and killed. Their bodies were taken to a funeral home in Arcadia while still in the car they were riding in when killed.
The town is fairly small, and appears to be having some success in capitalizing on their history. Below are a couple pictures of the town.
I think I'll cut this post short. We have been on the road most of the day, and we're both wore out.
More later, be safe.
