After my afternoon classes and a not-so-quick stop at Whole Foods for lunch and road snacks, we were off for our Thanksgiving vacation. We made our way to Highway 290 and started on our way to Houston for a turn at Interstate 10, headed east toward Baton Rouge. The drive was fairly uneventful, save for a lovely bit of traffic through Houston, but that was to be expected. A few stops along the way in Winnie (for gas), in Beaumont (for dinner), and somewhere on the other side of the Texas-Louisiana state line (for drinks). Probably the most exciting stop, however, was at the Texas-Louisiana state line for a harrowing mid-road trip photo shoot to commemorate my first driving across state lines. Perhaps less than mature, but I was genuinely and unexpectedly excited for my first trip across state lines as the driver. It's the little things in life, right?
