A visit to Fort Wayne this spring won’t be complete without stepping foot in at least one of the local parks or trails the area has to offer.

by nwiltrout April 26, 2012

I’ve been checking the weather forecast for this weekend each day. I have grand plans of hitting the hiking trail with my family to really get the spring season in full swing. I’m particularly excited because a few months ago, I stumbled upon the website for the Sycamore Land Trust and discovered a whole new-to-me collection [...]

Experience Aviation Up Close at Columbus Municipal Airport

by nwiltrout March 19, 2012

I fondly remember going to the airport with my parents, nose pressed up against the giant window, trying to get a really good look at the huge airplanes. But because of tighter security measures at major airports across the country, it’s becoming increasingly more difficult to introduce a love of airplanes to young kids. Afterall, without [...]

Day 1 in Nashville, Brown County

by erikdeckers December 28, 2011

For such a small town (relatively speaking), there is an awful lot to do in Nashville, Indiana. I daresay it’s one of the most efficiently packed towns in the entire state. And there’s something for everyone to do there. There’s a burgeoning arts scene with more artists per capita than any other tourist town (take [...]

For a Great Hike, Check Out the Fossil Beds at Allen’s Creek

by IDNR November 28, 2011

As a recent addition to the staff at Lake Monroe, I still have a lot of land (and water!) to explore and learn about. A few weeks ago, I took some time to check out a geological feature that I’d heard people talking about – the fossil beds at Allen’s Creek State Recreation Area. I [...]

by artourism October 28, 2011

Valley Branch Retreat Center, just east of Nashville on State Road 46, is known for great outdoor activities – camping, ATVing and mountain biking – but they have gone from the ground to the sky by adding ZIPLINING to their repertoire.

Family-friendly Fall Break Activities Downtown

by bsmith October 27, 2011

Stroll the leaf-covered sidewalks. Drink a hot cocoa from The South Bend Chocolate Company. Yep, it’s time again to throw on an extra layer and soak in the flavors of fall Downtown. I look forward to checking a few of these puppies off my fall to-do list! Where the sidewalk ends… Don’t let the cooler [...]
