10 hour drive from New Orleans to Texas means not many opportunities to stop and explore for photos, but I still managed to grab a handful. I went out for beignets and coffee with chicory one last time before heading out.

I also stopped at Sucre because French macarons.

I was driving through Louisiana, and ended up seeing a massive flea market at the side of the highway, so I stopped. I bought a pocket knife.

A quick stop for dinner in Tyler, Texas.

Pretty worn out from that drive, and not really looking forward to getting back in my car for another 8 hours to Santa Fe. I’m happy, though. Happier than I’ve been in a long time.

Today: Santa Fe, Spence Hot Springs
