Poverty Point State Park

We spent the day driving along I-20 through Mississippi and into Louisiana.  It’s a lovely ride through lots of pine forest.

We stopped at a great Louisiana State Park at the Poverty Point State Reservoir.  Lots of coots, Harlequin Ducks, and heron on the reservoir.  We took a walk through the forest marked bear and alligator habitat.  All we saw were oaks, cypress, pine, and palmetto, but a pleasant walk if not eventful.

We highly recommend this park, especially if you want relatively primitive camping, although full hook-ups are available.
