After breakfast and a quick trip to Costco in Baton Rouge we had to say good-bye to Danielle & Kimberlee. We needed to return to our new home to unpack & the girls were seeing the sights then heading for New Orleans. That was not fun!
We've discovered that we actually live in Marksville but our mailing address is Mansura. Anyway, the drive home was slightly quieter, but the scenery was lovely. There are many green fields and trees so it's less brown than Utah. The homes vary from shacks to single or double wides to brick, big & beautiful. Once you leave Baton Rouge it becomes very rural. Most of the time we didn't know where we were because there are very few "Welcome to..." signs.
We did find the church and were pleasantly surprised to find that it's not a house but a triple wide! It sits on a good sized lot so perhaps there'll be a real building there someday. I'll take pics on Sunday.
Tomorrow afternoon we'll return to Baton Rouge to meet President & Sister Wall, our mission president & his wife. We haven't figured out a fast way from Marksville to Baton Rouge yet. We're hoping Pres Wall will have some suggestions.
