Story, Indiana








This location has some amazing history, but nowadays, it is just a cute quaint quiet area. What I would call a "ghost town". We would see bumper stickers saying something about "Check Out Story", and you get this idea, really get kind of curious, now my hubby is the one who plans these trips, so he had an idea of what to expect, but I sure didn't ...not much around, and with the virus that hit the world, in Sept 2020, it was so eerily quiet. Maybe with things a bit different maybe the stores might be open?? I heard my hubby say several times I wanna see that or this, but it was behind the glass, oh well ...fun to see. It was a lot of peering through windows, taking some great shots while. Thanks, for stopping by today. Hope you are well. Take Care. Beth ( ;

This looks like a place - in my dreams.
I mean, I'd really like to live in a place that looks like this.

I do hope they return to prosperous times soon . . . and everything your hubby wanted/wants to see is alive, vibrant & well . . .

(still, a sleepy little place like this could be nice . . . 🙂)

Thank you for so many Great Places to dream about.
love & love,

"Bar U Ranch" , National Historic Site. Established in 1882, it was huge ranching operation  "even more info here." .  if you know anything about me, you will know I have always wanted to live on a farm, own a farm, have horses, cows, dogs, cats, garden, fields, quiet & peace the whole 9 or is it 10 yards. I want a mountain view like in the movie "Legend of the Fall" .  so when we got the chance to visit this location I really enjoyed seeing how the ranchers came in a took over the whole ranching/cattle business. it was hard work, long hours but if you had the right team you would do just fine. the shot over the campfire is a pot of coffee & hot water. the lady, let me see, i think her name was Greta, that could so be wrong but it is what is popping in my head this moment. she was great at telling the story. these men would all do different jobs. the chef would run with all his team ahead of the folks to set up and get

We both shared such a love for travel & photography. You will be missed. Rest In Peace, great "CameraGirl", RIP! ( : Where do we even start?, I continued to say to my hubby throughout our trip to Washington, Oregon, northern CA back in August 2015, that I wondered how I could take a picture of the whole tall tree? The trees in in the eastern US are huge, but the trees out west are gigantic, massive, huge!! There are .... THEY ARE! ...how do I even begin to show a picture of these awesome trees? I don't own a fancy camera just a normal point and shoot. How do I express to you the magnitude of how tall these massive trees are? they are huge!!! & will you
