(#49) Brown County Indiana

We went lots of places in Indiana, but touring the countryside of Brown country and listening to all Tony's childhood memories was really great. I wish I'd had a more rural upbringing at times, but then I wouldn't be me. We visited Brown County Park, were Tony's family had reunions and he has many found memories of picnics, horseback rides and the trees changing colors in fall. I climbed to the top of the 100 foot observation tower and saw beautiful scenery in every direction. Tony volunteered to stay on the ground and wave to me (what a trooper :) We drove through an all wooden covered bridge, something I've definately never done before.
We also went to see his Dad's lake house on "Lake Painted Hills" where he spent his teen years. Across the lake from his Dad's house was the pool he life guarded at. The whole area was really beautiful and I can see sometimes why he misses it. The weather was wonderful the whole week, 70's and 80's with low humidity too. But I have to remind him; it will snow there and I'm not made for snow. And " YES" we will visit again in spring, summer or fall, but Indiana will probably not see this California girl in winter if I have much to say about it.

Our entire trip was great, I enjoyed everyone and everything about Indiana.
So "THANK YOU INDIANA" , and hope to see you soon! Sue
