It was another frigid cold Saturday in Central Indiana. After a trip to a local winery we noticed that there weren’t many cars at the Indiana Grand Casino. We thought let’s drive around a bit.

Apparently there was some construction ongoing as there was equipment around the entrance and Valet Parking was closed. We drove into the parking garage. There were a decent amount of cars on the first two levels. By the time we got to the open top level, there were less than a handful of vehicles.

Few cars in the open air parking lot. This view is from the top level of the parking garage.

We chose to not park and go into the casino. It’s a miserable and cold day. With the Omicron covid still a threat it did not seem like a wise thing to partake of today. We’ll just head back home and enjoy a glass of wine.
When it’s enough to keep people out of the gambling hall it’s a seriously, whiny cold day. Best to enjoy a good wine at home.

It looks very cold there, and so flat too. It was a wise decision to go home, be safe! My bottle of wine is in the fridgy. ☺️

It’s called Pinot Grigio from the Cupcake Vinyards. Their other wines are tasty too.

I would wager (no pun intended!) that it’s the fear of omicron that’s keeping out of the Casino, not the cold day. I mean, you go from your warm house to your warm car to the warm Casino … it’s not like you’re walking to the Casino! & if you are … you’ve got a wicked gambling jones & you’re not going to care about the cold.
