Having one son who is a basketball fanatic and another who is a sucker for slapstick humor gives me two great reasons to be excited that the Globetrotters are [...]

Northwest Indiana is a place of great natural beauty but we are also an area of great culture.  Many believe that in order to take in a ballet or opera, one has to go to nearby Chicago.  Northwest Indiana is filled with all kinds of culture. So without further ado, let the curtain rise: The [...]

First Friday Arts & Community Events in Vevay, IN

December 31, 2009

Since I live in Central Indiana, I’m a big fan of the First Friday art events around downtown Indianapolis. I never miss a month. But I’m going to have to one of these times, because Vevay (Switzerland County) has their very own First Friday events. My friend, Kendal Miller, PR Coordinator for Switzerland County, assures [...]

Cambria Suites in Noblesville Great for Weekend Getaway

To celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary, my wife and I went to the Cambria Suites in Noblesville (Hamilton County), off exit 10 on I-69. It’s less than 3 miles from our house. I won a getaway package at [...]

December 29, 2009

I love New Year’s Day. Every year my parents come over to watch football and eat cabbage rolls (for good luck, my dad says). In my mind it’s the last lazy day of the holiday season. But not everyone likes lounging in front of the TV, watching hours of football. If that’s you, then I’d [...]
