Our Road Trip Through Indiana

We travel through Indiana frequently.  Our son lives in Indianapolis, so we

usually stop there, but on our trip to North Carolina, we traversed the length

of the state.  If you haven't traveled through Indiana before, I will tell you the

code word.......FLAT.  Indiana is a pretty flat state, which makes it perfect for

growing things.  There are lots of farms and fields of grain, soybeans, corn, and

other crops.  If you stop in a small town restaurant, you are likely to see farmers

and farmer's families.  In the spring, they still have the mud from the fields on their

boots.  So, now that you know where lots of your food comes from, you might like to

take a look at our photos.  These are typical photos of Indiana countryside...........

 but no silos.  There were so many I couldn't decide which ones to photograph!

 

 

We made a few stops.  Once at a rest stop to check email and water our dog, Kitty.

You can see her right under the table where Terry is reading his email.  The

harvested wheat field was right behind the rest stop area.  On the way home, we

stopped for blueberries.  We get blueberries at this farm every year when we take

or pick up our grandson for his annual stay at Grandpa & Grandma Camp.  We

hope you enjoyed our little romp through Indiana from the Interstate.

Where in NC is Grandma and Grandpa camp?  I would love to meet you both some time.  I have several clients here from Michigan at the moment and they say it takes about 10 hours to get here. I hope everyone had fun!

Diane, They live in Hendersonville and it is about 12 hours from here. Maybe next time we can get together.

Terry and Bonnie, what great photos!  They remind me of Kansas - flat, soy beans everywhere!  And the blueberries must be amazing when they're that fresh!  Have a fun trip!

And you should post this with the Road Trip group!

Pat, We seem to always go the same way when we travel. We decided to get off the fastest routes and see some of the areas not on the major highways.
