Roadtrip Recap Day 5: Sinton, TX to Sulphur, LA

I had a hankering for a country breakfast (grits, eggs, bacon) but couldn't find any suitable spot. If only I had had a craving for mariscos. Lots of Mexican food available in the region.
I finally gave up and stopped at a rest stop near Inez and made myself a sandwich.

Peanut butter, Seville orange marmalade, and bananas.

It was a very pleasant spot situated in a grove of oaks.
A train rolled by:
