Big Bone Lick

Image
Big Bone Lick State Historic Site Union, KY "...the name of the park comes from the Pleistocene megafauna fossils found there. Mammoths are believed to have been drawn to this location by a salt lick deposited around the sulfur springs..." What a fun visit, you can walk to the bison area and several other hiking trails. Great exercise if you so chose??! It was humid day. Thank You for stopping by today. Hope you are well. Take Care. Beth ( ;

Jasper City Mill

Jasper City Mill, Jasper, IN https://www.jasperindiana.gov/ Gorgeous well kept mill, love that when it happens. It is a real piece of art. We visited two days during our 6 day stay in area. Once for just pictures, 2nd time when we had some burgers and did stop in the park near the mill to eat and enjoy the view. Great area. Check out inside of the mill ...nice views, they have items for sale ...a fresh clean restroom 2. Must see location. Thanks for stopping by. Hope you are well. Take Care. Beth ( ; 

Odon, Indiana

Odon, Indiana ...now when I zoom into my photo everything gets really grainy ...but I feel I can see "Catholic", "16519 1550 N,", that is a street sign and a number??! ...but I can only find a Christian church there??! (But this is a not a huge area, so you cannot go street side view to get a real great view??!) I will try again soon. Thank you for stopping by today. Hope you are well. Take Care.

Paoli Bridge

Image
Bridge & Iron Co Cleveland O 1880. Paoli, Indiana I was trying to research the location of this bridge for this post and found this interesting article to share:  https://blog.jimgrey.net/2015/12/28/1880-paoli-bridge-destroyed/ I am beyond SHOCKED, as to what happened way back in 2015. We did visit in May 2021. I am curious what the trucker was thinking to think he was short enough to even get through this bridge, always read height and weight requirements, we sure do with our truck and trailer combo? We love this fancy bridge, all those amazing details. WAY COOL!! Thank you for stopping by today. Hope you are well. Take Care. Beth ( ; 

Jungle Jim's Fairfield

Image
Jungle Jim's, Fairfield, Ohio I have lost track of how many times we have traveled to this amazing grocery store ...I believe 4 times. It just has so many amazing items ...international ...candies, syrups, tomato sauces, fruits, veggies. We love to go and get items for Christmas presents ...it is just a blast. We spent over 3 HOURS there, it is that big. We had lunch, celebrated with my Starbucks free drink for my birthday on May 23. We rarely are around a Starbucks for my birthday, they only allow one day ...where other stores allow you to celebrate you big day all month long. NOT STARBUCKS, one day only. So that was nice to finally get my FREE drink. These pics are critters that talk ...the Campbell Soup man there swings with the little kids beside him. It is just super cute and fun. Once they even had a pantomime. Not during out visit this time May 2021 ...but it was super busy ...don't believe we have ever been on a Sunday ...never again. It was TOO BUSY. People every where...

Saint Meinrad

  Saint Meinrad, Saint Meinrad, Indiana. Monastery. "80+ monks living, working and praying in a Benedictine monastery." So pretty, we really wanted to get up close and personal. But didn't know any one just curious for a picture and whatnot. Gorgeous grounds and views. They do sell caskets ...didn't have room in the back of our truck. We carry kayaks so that would not for us. & our spare tire holder broke so that was in there as well. If you care for more info please:  https://www.saintmeinrad.org/ Hope you are well today.

Beck's Mill

Image
  Beck's Mill, Salem, Indiana https://becksmill.org/ This mill ...the road around it was being worked on ...so it was just a small area we could capture, but you get the point and see the unique beauty. We are always a fan of grist mills. If you care to know more about the area and about the mill in general head to that website. It has been out of work lately. So I hope they will get it back in working order. I saw that it was open by appointment only ...not sure who would be able to get it open again? Some1 who would spend tons of money or what?? A school trip? I know the virus probably cut back on tours??! These were take late May 2021. Fun day trip. Thank you for stopping by. Hope you are well. Take Care. Beth ( ;
