New Orleans, LA

ODOMETER: 81,630  | MILES TRAVELED: 3,685

It’s a quiet start to the day. Jack and Ellie are sleeping in and Jana and I decide to take a walk down to the riverfront. New Orleans is relatively quiet as it nurses its hangover. 

There are remnants of fireworks littering the streets and plenty of Hurricane attesting to the night’s festivities.

The Mississippi River never fails to impress. It is such a huge body of water and watching the ships, tugs and barges ply their way up and downstream you realize it is still a significant lifeline for commerce.

We walked past the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas on the waterfront and wend our way back to the RV park. Being able to walk from the RV park is awesome and the location of the park has been wonderful.

Jack got his drone out for the sunset and got some amazing shots and footage of New Orleans. He’s getting quite adept at operating the drone and seems to really enjoy the challenges of flying, videoing and photographing.

We reheat Jana’s famous Chicken Noodle Soup and settle in for an early night. We’re off to Lafayette tomorrow on our way across Louisiana toward Texas.

Happy 20th Birthday, Jack!

Today, as you begin your twenties, we want to pause and celebrate the beautiful human you are. Your authenticity is a light, shining through in everything you do. You live your truth with a courage that inspires all of us. Your creativity is captivating, lifting the spirits of those who witness it. We admire your dedication to your own art and your profound connection to music, film and art in all forms.

Your unwavering selflessness, kindness and compassion are strengths that move quietly but profoundly, touching lives in ways you don’t always realize. The warmth and care you extend to others is a true reflection of your being. It’s a gift to watch you uplift those around you, always consciously mindful, always compassionate.

As you continue on your artistic journey, know that we are with you, supporting you always. We believe in your art, unlimited by commercial constraints and free from the mainstream’s narrow definitions of success. Your authentic vision, your voice, and your perspective are important and needed in this world.

Keep following your passions. Keep being you—because who you are is truly a gift to this world. Here’s to more years of creativity, joy, and the pure expression of your true self.

We love you so much, Jack. Happy 20th Birthday!

With all our love and admiration,

Mum & Dad
