Day 42, April 16: Hammond to Bogalusa, LA

58 of 58 miles

The route passed by the Global Wildlife Center, a 900-acre park that features grazing animals. A few of us hitched a ride in with a staff person, bikes included, but we were unable to secure admission as it was school vacation week and the facility was packed with every manner of excited children. I did manage to get quite a shock when I got too close to the electrical fence to take a photo. The fences are electrified not to keep the park’s animals in but, rather, to keep the coyotes out.


The only other “highlight” of the day was passing by the Uneedus Superdome.
