Road Trip-League of Our Own Bus-Photos

by 16 Comments

Eric and I decided to take a little road trip earlier this week. We visited Holland, Indiana. Holland is a small town west of Huntingburg and home of the Holland Dairy/Prairie Farms dairy foods. Although not a lot there, they do have a very nice little park with a walking trail along the lake, a large globe and purple people eater. 😉 But the main draw for us is the windmill. We hadn’t been there since Eric was about 5 years old so it was nice to see it again. In Huntingburg we spotted the Rockford Peaches bus from the movie A League of Our Own and decided to snap a few photos. Some day soon I’ll have to go back and visit the ball park where parts of the movie were filmed. Haven’t been there for years.

    There is something peaceful about a windmill and I liked the bus too. Very nostalgic.

        Things seem to be picking up, the rainy season has arrived but I am still lethargic with temperatures of 30 degrees, I wasn’t built for heat but sustained heat! woo! I find myself with plenty of books to read and plans going forward so hopefully one day soon everything will come together and I can announce some news. I Hope this message finds you well?
