Southern Indiana for a weekend

Before Jimmy had left, he had mentioned that there was a huge BBQ fest near his parents’. Keeping this in mind since his departure, I wrangled a handful of friends and convinced them to go to Indiana with me for this culinary expedition. Jimmy lives in southern Indiana, near Kentucky. This is about a 7 hour drive, so we had a nice road trip through Ohio, Kentucky, and the southern tip of Indiana. Two of our group left from Urbana-Champagn, Illinois and the other five of us road-tripped down from my place.

International Bar-B-Q Festival

Jimmy had informed us about a very large BBQ festival near his hometown in Indiana while he was still living in Michigan. But we were too late for it last year.

Mammoth Caves

During our stay in Indiana, we decided that since Mammoth caves was only 2 hours away, it would be a fun side-trip to visit before BBQfest started. 8 of us piled into Lori and Zack’s Expedition, and the other 4 piled into Luke’s pickup for the 2 hour journey. Although nature tried to hinder us from exploring her cavernous wonders by making us drive through torrential rains (some might say monsoon), we made it to the national park in one piece.

Turkey Day 2012

What an interesting and busy Thanksgiving weekend! And I figured out what was causing my computer to shut down. I feel like I finally have some time to sit down and write about my Thanksgiving last week. I had to figure out how to get pictures off my camera, in the end I ended up using my PSP to retrieve the pictures. Then I managed to get Adobe CS6 on the computer to work, and was able to actually convert my pictures. ☺ I feel like I am more busy than I should be. Anyways on to the Turkey Day Weekend shenanigans.
