My first wife was a Kentuckian- and we spent many months on the family farm outside Elizabethtown. I also spent three months working in a church in Philadelphia. Otherwise I've holidayed, briefly, in Southern Indiana and Washington DC.
I'd love to go out west- but I figure watching John Ford movies is the next best thing.
Well you sure have me way beat on places you have been. I doubt that I will ever have ALL of your experiences.
If you were in Southern Indiana you were in some of the prettiest parts of the state. The dunes here are rather nice though and the national park area is beautiful.
Chicago really is a special city. I like it, or at least a lot of it.
There had been storms in S. Indiana just before we visited- and the grounds of the hotel were partially flooded and the ground floor smelled of stagnant water.
The French Lick Hotel always smells like sulfur on the ground floor, but that's from the natural spring that they used (still use?) for spa therapy. I don't think I would like that therapy!
