This past Sunday my boyfriend and I went to Indiana for about two days to visit his father and to do a bit of sightseeing. It was a good trip overall. From the start of entering in the state we saw many signs for this candle shop and Jesus. And when I say many signs I mean maybe a dozen. One even having a shirtless cowboy on it for reasons I will never understand. We saw the candle shop from afar and it was shaped like a giant candle. But we did not stop. We came home a different way.
Visiting his father and father's wife was very nice. We had some delicious food and it was nice getting to know them better. Monday we walked for a bit downtown and had lunch at place called the garage which was a old, huge garage and it had at least a dozen different kinds of food. After that we went to walk a bit downtown Indianapolis. It was a-lot calmer than it would be during a weekend, so I liked that.
On the way home we decided to go to check out the Garfield trail which is 14 big Garfield statues in different areas in Grant county. The website we used was tricky because it didn't give us the city/town names. We ended up getting lost a few times but eventually got to them all, taking pictures and selfies. One thing I noticed was some of the Garfield's were in areas that were run down little towns which was sort of depressing.

We did play a bit of Pokemon go, but besides the recent mental pokemon event- not much was happening.
And lastly before we left Indiana we wanted to go to a bookstore, so we found one and it was a pleasant surprise! It used to be a house and now is a bookstore. I loved going there. Out on the front porch they had some old beat-up copies for 50 cents and inside was a good selection of books covering all sorts of topics, but mostly had sci-fi and fantasy. I found The Handmaids Tale for five dollars which I was happy to buy.

Overall Indiana being only a few hours away from home didn't feel all that different.
I am happy to be back home now. It feels good to be back in Ohio. A few days of exploring Cleveland and visiting with his family and then I'll be going home soon. I miss my Sapphire.
