Green grass, neat houses and a break from the crazy drivers of Michigan; a stop with family in sleepy Indianapolis was a welcome break.
It was great to see my cousins (second cousins, cousins once removed, I’m not too sure to be exact?) again, and to meet their two boys. We took a trip out to see the Indianapolis motor speedway, and the attached museum. Angus was very impressed with the crazy old cars they started racing in the Indy 500. After, a picnic lunch and a tour past the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in downtown Indianapolis.
There were also a number of firsts in the cuisine department. Beer aged in Bourbon barrels (delicious!), Southern Style Chicken Dumplings (kind of like a tasty creamy chicken pasta), crumbed okra and the tastiest of all, a double chocolate fudge Coca Cola cake, a la mode.
