Bill & Sandra Wayne's Travel Pages
Bill's June 2026 Trip to Louisiana
This trip was built around an event: Bill's 65th high school reunion in Lake Charles; it also included some genealogical research and both documentary and "art" photography.
I traveled 1870 miles, a good part of it on new-to-me "virgin roads,"
I always ty to maintain Sandra's tredition of noticing odd-ball things she incorporated in her "tid-bits," see new places andtake pictures for the next contest.
The day-by-day trip description and many pictures are also on Our Personal Blog for Jun 2026
and July 2026,
which will open in a new window (as will all of the following links).
You may prefer to read the text of my blog posts as a PDF document, in order and without the pictures.
