    2023 Week 42 – Back Home Again in Indiana

    What’s Going On:I’ve been back from Europe for a while and have been playing catch-up for the last few weeks. I also took another trip. This time Texas was the destination! Special shout out to Side Door Bagels for the fantastic breakfast bagel I picked up last week! More to come soon…

    2022 Week 39 – What the Cluck is Going On?

    If you follow the Indianapolis food scene, you have undoubtedly seen the explosion of chicken-focused restaurants popping up all over the place. IndyToday has an interactive map showing most of the places around town that are open or coming soon. But, unfortunately, they missed a few, namely Zaxby’s, Chick-Fil-A, and City Bird (which just opened…

    2022 Week 15 – Looking for Lunch in Lawrence

    Since the beginning of the year, I’ve been doing some work in the Lawrence, Indiana, area a couple of days a week. It’s not a place that I frequented very often before January, but I decided to explore the food scene when I started spending time here. Specifically, Lunch in Lawrence. Pendleton Pike and 56th…

    Trip Report – Hoosier National Forrest

    I’ve been planning an overnight getaway to the Hoosier National Forrest (HNF) for a while now.  I prefer weeknight trips to avoid the rush of weekend warriors that fill the campsites throughout the US.   It was funny (and totally coincidental) to see a writeup in the latest Indianapolis Monthly this month.  Even more so…

  • Trip Report – Turkey Run State Park

    I took an opportunity towards the end of May to take a day off work and go exploring at Turkey Run State Park. It had been years since I last visited and I really didn’t remember it very well. The weather was just about perfect and I was surprised how close the park actually was…

  • Gear Review – Altra Lone Peak 4 Trail Runners

    I’m back!  I kind of lost interest in the blog over the winter and made the (mistake?) of purchasing Red Dead Redemption 2.  That game is a HUGE time suck but amazing and I don’t regret it. I also got hooked on some new YouTube channels* over the winter and it’s rekindled my desire to…
