Destination Downtown Lafayette

By Carrie Lambert on Oct. 30, 2013

I had the privilege of spending the morning in Downtown Lafayette the other day. I was amazed at all the unique shops located within walking distance of each other. It took the entire morning to make my way through each place and I certainly could have spent longer ... especially since I had…

A Dairy Good Time

By admin on Oct. 30, 2013

Attending school five hours away from home only means one thing for me when it comes to school breaks; road trips. Many times people complain about having to drive for hours, but I actually enjoy it. I love driving down the interstate singing along to my favorite country songs and picturing in my…

Indianapolis Scottish Highland Games and Festival 2013

By admin on Oct. 14, 2013

We were in luck for this year's Indianapolis Scottish Highland Games and Festival — it was warm and sunny, and not the typical fall weather you get in the middle of October.

Mark your calendars ... this Saturday and Sunday Beasley's Orchard is having their annual Heartland Apple Festival. And I hate to be the one to break it to you, but it really isn't fall until you have headed out to a pumpkin patch and attended a fall festival. And if you go this weekend, you can hit…
