4 Well, it's about time to move on, don't you think?  Where do we want to go anyway?  Originally, we were talking of going to Yellowstone, but with all of what we've been through lately, we're now thinking maybe we should just head homeward and maybe visit some friends & relatives on the way.

6 Let's head toward Austin, Texas!  They have the largest bat population in the US, under the Congress Avenue Bridge, and we've heard it's amazing to watch them all emerge!  So, how do we get to Austin from Alexandria, LA?  Looks like about 2 days of travel and...  well...  looks as if there's another Corps of Engineers Lake RV Park just outside of Jasper, TX!  We can stay there for 1 day and then head into Austin!

8 Saying "Goodbye Lousiana, it was good meeting all of your amazingly friendly and helpful people!", we drove over to Jasper, TX.

10 On the last day of our stay at Indian Creek RV Park, one of the power adapters for our Macbooks ended up fried, brown and crispy on the outside!  Amazing it didn't start a fire!  (Looks as though maybe we were using too small of a wattage adapter and when an external drive was plugged in also, it was too much!  Oops!)  Looking online, we found that Apple's price was normally about $80, but Walmart in some places had them for $60.  We saw there was a large Walmart just outside of Jasper!  So, we stopped there on the way to the park!  (The price in the store was also $80, but when Richard talked to the Customer Service people, showing them the online price of $60 ["I could purchase it now using my phone and then pick it up in the store where I am now!"], they agreed to meet the $60 price.  Apparently, if Walmart is the actual seller of the item, they will meet the online price.  Something we just learned today!)
