Yesterday we entered Indiana in a rain storm. It was sprinkling when we left Jellystone Park and it only got worse from there. Traffic was terrible as well. It was a stressful drive.
Oak Lake RV Resort is a nice quiet (mostly) resort off the highway in amongst the trees. We are here for four nights.
Tom asked me where I wanted to go today and I chose Indiana Dunes National Park. It disappointed. It is unlike any National Park I’ve ever been too. There are homes all through the park, a steel mill, VERY little parking and map directions are not very good. One good thing was we were able to have a good view of Lake Michigan. It was like looking at the ocean.
Another good thing happened. We traveled through Gary, Indiana. You might remember that name from the Music Man (unless you are Tom).
Gary, Indiana
Gary, Indiana
Gary, Indiana
Let me say it once again
Gary, Indiana
Gary, Indiana
Gary, Indiana
That’s the town that knew me when
If you’d like to have a logical explanation
How I happened on this elegant syncopation
I will say without a moment of hesitation
There is just one place that can light my face
Gary, Indiana
Gary, Indiana
Not Louisiana, Paris, France, New York or Rome
But Gary, Indiana
Gary, Indiana
Gary, Indiana
My home sweet home (music & lyrics by Meredith Wilson)
Sadly, my musician husband does not like musicals and so I had to tell him about the song.
Tomorrow we will head to Wriggly Field. I’m not really looking forward to this game. I dislike the Cubs like others dislike the Yankees. I hesitate to say hate because that’s not fair but they will never be the team I hope wins, anything.
We’re enjoying cool temperatures and not having to use the air conditioner. The refrigerator makes me want to scream and throw it out the door. The gas quit working as I mentioned in another post so we removed everything from the fridge while traveling. I had tried the gas before turning it off and so upon turning it on, the gas kicked in. I don’t know! It’s got a mind of its own.
Well that’s our journey for today. Hoping your day was a good one.
