#RunningTo Week 20 in Review: Houston, New Orleans, Jackson

It’s hard to believe this edition of my #RunningTo Week in Review marks my 20th. Twenty weeks on the road, stretching from the Southwest to the Southeast. What a wild, crazy, long trip it’s been, and continues to be.

This week featured a definitive shift from Midwest to South. I started in Houston and meandered eastward to New Orleans. It was my first time visiting the Big Easy; such a unique place. From there I trekked northward to Jackson, Mississippi, and if there were any doubts about being in the South before that, those went away quickly.

Enjoy my favorite moments from the wandering week that was, and stay tuned for more wanderings to come in Alabama and Tennessee!

What? There’s a bat bridge in Houston? I was born and raised in Houston and had no idea. I thought that was just something in Austin, although I knew there were bats here.

I work in one of those buildings behind you in the first Houston picture.

Sounds like you enjoyed my city. I’ll have to check out the bat bridge.

I’ve been to N’Orleans, once. Went to visit a potential grad school there. I think it would have been fun to live there for a couple of years, but ended up elsewhere.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip!

Been to New Orleans once before- loved Cafe du Monde! Since then, beignets are my FAVORITE pastry dessert!
