Indiana Road Trip

Our second excursion this summer was a trip to Indiana to see some of Danny's family. We decided to drive so we could bring back some of Danny's stuff. The first day we drove about 9 hours and stayed at Drury Inn in Sikeston, MO. That's one of our favorite hotel chains and the one in Sikeston is great because it's close to an outlet mall and Lambert's restaurant. The only bad thing is we didn't go to either this time. It was too late, so we just relaxed in the hot tub and turned in early. We got to Danny's dad's house about 4:00 the next day.

Danny grew up in Somerset, and his Dad and one of his sisters still live there in the house he helped the family build. We had a wonderful visit with them and his younger sister who lives in Indianapolis.



This is Danny's older sister, Shelby. She has a super green thumb and this picture shows her and just a few of the beautiful flowers in their yard.


This is Danny, his younger sister, Charlene and his nephew Rick.


The picture window in their living room has several bird feeders that attract all kinds of birds. There are a couple of yellow canaries in this picture. (If you click on the picture I think it will enlarge on the screen for a better view.)



This is Danny and his Dad (age 90) relaxing in back of their house. It looks out over a reservoir and the view is beautiful. We watched all kinds of water activities.
