This weekend, Tate was home from Tennessee. We spent time together as a family, enjoying our last days in Indiana.
Nearby where we live is a festival called the Feast of the Hunter’s Moon. If you ever get the opportunity to go, you totally should! All the participants dressed in garb from the late 1700′s. There were artisans from all over, making beautiful items from wood and handspun yarn and food cooked in huge cast-iron pots over open fires. The festival spanned several acres, and offered period entertainment with storytelling, music, and jugglers.
We had a blast, watching the sites, smelling the campfires burn, and watching the artists work.
On Sunday we enjoyed a most mediocre lunch at a local eatery. The place is a relic straight out of the mid to late 70′s, complete with heavy brown and orange decor. The place smells like fryer grease and the waitresses are a bit salty. It’s a fun place to eat, nevertheless.
Oh Indiana. I’m going to miss you.
We leave for Tennessee on Thursday. On Wednesday afternoon, I’m going to return my cable box and *GASP* modem. That means I will not have Internet access for OVER 24 HOURS.
Keep the Internet spinning while I’m gone, will ya?
good luck with the move, love. and who knows? maybe you’ll fall in love with Tennessee too

Utah has nothing as cool as that festival, dammit! This is such a sweet post. I haven’t ever been to Indiana but I LOVE Tennessee.

That festival looked like so much fun. I like the new look/slogan, but I definitely second the air card suggestion. You deserve it.
Tennennese is going to be great! I’m from Mississippi, we now live in Arkansas and trust me there are some really great things to do.
Phew. That was FAST! Holy crapoli.
I’ll be thinking of you this weekend and next week…can’t wait to ‘have you back’ on teh internetz, darlin’.
We miss you already
Hi there! I drive through Indiana this weekend and thought about you honey! We went up to South Bend to see the Notre Dame / Stanford game (GO IRISH).
Hope you’re doing well.

I was at the Feast of the Hunter’s Moon too. I live about an hour away but try to go every year.
Now I have to ask: did you visit the famous Frozen Custard stand in Lafayette?
(I had Pumpkin Pie custard. Yum.)
