Headed for Loosana

We've been in Gulf Shores, Alabama for the last two nights. A very nice place. We're thinking we'll come back here for a week or two the next time we come to Kentucky to visit the McQueens.

We're heading west this morning. We'll probably end up tonight in Louisiana, somewhere north and east of Norlins. We're hoping to stay off of the interstate and hug the coast so that we can visit some of the communities affected by hurricane Katrina.

We've decided to slow down and add a few days to the trip because my friend Arnie Lerner, who lives in Albuquerque has invited us to spend Thanksgiving with his family. Originally we would have arrived there next Monday and now we don't want to show up until Wednesday. So, we'll spend a little more time in Louisiana and Texas. Now it looks like we'll be back in Oregon on the 2nd or 3rd of December.

I'm having a really hard time placing photos where I want them in this blog so I'll just plunk them all down here and let them decide where they end up. These are some of the photos of Kai and her kids that we took while we were in Hopkinsville.
