Day 10 - A day off the bike - Avery Island, the Tabasco Factory, Electrical repair, A quiet supper at friends

This morning the weather looked suspect, I have spent eight days on the bike seat, my butt needed a break. Joey Pons was kind enough to take Turk and I to Avery Island this morning. Along the way, we stopped for a traditional Cajun Breakfast of Boudain and Cracklin's The market inside was a treasure trove of carniverous deliciousness! Once at Avery Island we fulfilled a Turk Bence Bucket List item by going through the TABASCO Museum and Factory. A quite interesting history of the Family and the Island. Once through with our self-guided tour, we headed for the Garden's associated with Avery Island and the Family. The gardens were blossoming, the Alligators were sunning and the painters were painting while the Egrets were courting and roosting. After returning to Lafayette, Turk departed for home via the Natchez Trace and Vicksburg. Joey and I tackled the replacement of my HEX EZCan accessory controller. Two hours later we had replaced the controller and re-fit the new connectors required for the new and improved EZCan.
Tomorrow I'll start heading back towards Alamogordo and an eventual return to home sometime around March 18th/19th.
