Natalie, Edie and I flew down to Monroe, LA a few weeks ago for a long weekend to check in on Edie’s dad. He’s hanging in there and we made the most of our visit, driving all over Monroe and West Monroe, swimming in the indoor pool of the Holiday Inn Holodome (which is in fact not a dome), eating bad late-nite drive-in food, photographing backyard wildlife and roadside attractions, and meeting Mary and her family. Just wanted to share the photos from the trip.
