Well the day turned pretty much into a travel day. We left Nashville and headed north on 65. We thought about hitting the Mammoth Caves but decided against it. We did stop at Abe's birthplace, but it's kind of a misnomer really. Nobody knows exactly where he was born. They have a reproduction of the cabin, a lot of maybes and probables. But ya gotta' stop.
Next we headed to Louisville. They make it hard to visit. Twice we headed to visitor centers, twice they were close down. Odd. And unfortunate for them. We left. Didn't need the aggravation. Kind of a shame too, as it looks like an interesting town. We'll give it a shot the next time we're in the area. So it came down to Indianapolis or Cincinnati, and we went with......
Indy. Very vibrant city. we went downtown for dinner and there were people all over the place. A ike race going on, all kinds of activity. A cop says it's just an average night in Indy. We ate at a pub called the Ram. Really nice place, good beer and prices. We really had a nice evening....
Couple of things though. We are still finding it somewhat difficult to find lodging. I find this incredible. Seldom have we had these issues traveling all over the country. Maybe it means more folks are on the road, or maybe we are just hitting more popular ares. I don't know. However, when I call and you say you have plenty of rooms, and I get there are you are "all booked", this I have a problem with. My friends at the Drury will be hearing from me.
And when/where is 192 less than 144? When you're buying beer in Indianapolis, that's when. Twelve pack of 16 ouncers 3 bucks cheaper than the 12 pack of 12 ouncers. We are having silos now...... More of Indy today, then we'll see what's up next.
