Hey Ladies and Gents-
I'm planning a cross-country road trip of anywhere between 4-8 weeks, leaving some time in mid-late April.
One of the states I'm going to be visiting is Louisiana.
So far, I have the following on the list of things to *potentially* see in your state. I'm not sure I'll get to all of them, but I want to solicit suggestions about things I should see or avoid.
I'm particularly interested in stuff that people might not know about or remember that has historic significance. For instance, in Louisiana I'm visiting the site where Bonnie and Clyde were gunned down. In that case, it's just a small monument on a dirt road, but it's an interesting part of history.
- Bonnie and Clyde shootout location
- Oak Alley Plantation or Oakland Plantation or Whitney Plantation
- Avery Island (Tobasco)
Louisiana is a bit different than other states on my list. My sister and BIL used to live in New Orleans, so I've been there and done that. That's why it's not on the list. I also don't know if I can do any of the plantations or Avery Island because of covid. The list above is pretty rough and could use some improvement, though I'm not sure how much I'll be able to get to in LA.
Any advice at all is welcome. Things to see, places to avoid, roads to use and not use, trails for off-roading, camp sites, etc.
One thing I won't be doing is shooting, and I don't really intend on visiting FFLs or anything like that. I have a limited amount of time for certain states and can't waste that in gun shops.
I plan on sleeping in the back of the car for 2-3 days, then getting a hotel for the night, then going back in the car. As a result, I'll need recommendations for cool camp sites with views, etc.
Any information about Covid restrictions is also helpful with regard to closures of parks or businesses.
Thanks for any advice you can offer.
