Hustle and Bustle - Mon., Oct. 20, 2014

Hither and yon. The last time you heard from us we were in Chelsea, Michigan on Saturday. I wanted to update you on our whereabouts, but I don't have time for a full blog now.

Here's a teaser...our walk in Ann Arbor was excellent. It focused on fairies, kind of, fairy doors to be specific. What's a fairy door, you may ask? We wondered the same thing and weren't sure what we were looking for. Luckily our Volksmarch directions told us where to look. Seems Ann Arbor denizens have taken a liking to cute little fairy doors. Take a quick look...
See the tiny door by Bob's foot? That's a fairy door!
The fairy doors are usually next to the front door. See below. The small door is a fairy door. I have put an enlarged version of the fairy door in the second photo below.

You can see little gifts people have left for the fairies: a pebble, a Lego and a candy. Who knew?

The Ann Arbor walk was Sunday morning. By Sunday evening we were in Columbus, Ohio at Alton RV Park ready for our state Capitol Volksmarch on Monday morning.


Monday morning, we were on the walk at 7:35 a.m. in downtown Columbus.

When we finished, we grabbed lunch at Taco Bell, packed up the 5th wheel and hit the road. 

Next stop, Indianapolis, Indiana. We were going to do the Indiana Capitol Volksmarch this afternoon, but I admit I dilly-dallied after we got here thinking we could start the walk until 7:00 p.m. We drove downtown to the start point only to find it closed at 5:00 p.m. Sigh. What's a person to do? Well, we grabbed a brochure with sights to see in downtown Indianapolis and took off walking. We'll do the Volksmarch in the morning.

We can tell you that we LOVE Indianapolis. Here's a few reasons why...

The Capitol

Tomorrow morning we will be up early to tour the Capitol and then do the Volksmarch (which I think we may have done part of tonight). Stay tuned for our location tomorrow night. 

Travel Bug out.
