Took the TC 300 miles south to New Orleans to be with relatives. It was still cold but not bad, 40's at night and mid 50's in the day, mostly sunny. I found out if I take the back roads and stay @ 55 to 60 mph I get 15 MPG as compared to 70 on the freeway @ 11 MPG. Saved $46.00 in gas round trip and it added 40 minutes to the trip each way.
Got to see music, Tryptophunk & Gravy, went to a small liquor store and tasted many single malt scotches, excellent food and came back 1 pound lighter than when I left. 2013 has been a bad year for the family, 4 deaths this year but it was nice to see extended family and be thankful for what we do have.
Here are some pix.

Sugar Cane Harvest is in full swing. Cane for miles in St Landry Parish, LA
Along the Bayou in LA
All in all a nice break from the very normal life I live. I've got to get out more, LOL!
