We started at 8:51 CDT AM and drove 461 miles to Jackson MS, were we spent the night at a La Quinta motel. Along the way we crossed the Mississippi River in Baton Rouge. It’s been 2 years since Hurricane Katrina, and 1.5 years since we last drove through East Texas/Western Louisiana, and the area is looking a lot better.
