New Orleans is always worth the miles

Just got back from New Orleans this week to enjoy our October snow storm and power outage.  The trip to New Orleans was excellent.  The roads were clear, the pavement was smooth or it was being repaired and widened.  I experienced very little congested traffic.  The total ride was around 2400 miles.  Takes about 20 hours each way from PA if you just stop for gas and an occasional sandwich.

Seeing the good people from the IAAI T&E steering committee was nice and we got a lot of work done, but the oysters at Drago’s are why you drive 2000 miles!  (just kidding friends from IAAI.)  Holy smokes, the oysters are grilled and unforgettable.  The country is recovering slowly and the oysters in New Orleans came back fast!
