We’ve been spending the last week or so in Wanaka. Where’s Wanaka? Good question. Wanaka is represented by the “A” on that map.

You know that if you use that bathroom, you’re taking your life into your own hands. After traveling to Southern Indiana last week… Read More On Gas Station Bathrooms and Big Purses

We stayed at a Marriott hotel about 15 minutes east of Nashville, Indiana. We left our… Read More Back from Southern Indiana
