A wonderful way to remember.




Batesville’s Bison-tennial statue
Indiana’s Bicentennial was celebrated in 2016. As part of the celebration, fiberglass statues of bison were made available to each of Indiana’s counties. Local artists decorated them with themes and scenes of the local area and features. We have seen several of these during our travels around the state, and our trip to Batesville today was no different.

We found the familiar shape of one of 92 Indiana county’s bison statues in front of the Batesville City Admin and Police Department Building. “Braun” sure makes a striking appearance on this admin office lawn!
Lil’ Charlie’s Restaurant and Brewery
Lil’ Charlie’s Restaurant and Brewery is located in downtown Batesville, Indiana. We stopped for lunch and found the food delicious. We tried a flight of beer and it was very good. Hard to pick a favorite, but Maj liked the Oktoberfest Marzan Man best. We’ll be going there again next time we’re in the area.
I loved these and the special sauce was yummy!
Batesville for lunch!

Greenwood Indiana Civil War vets cemetery section
It was sunny and cold today, but still a nice day for a short trip. we found ourselves t a large city cemetery in Greenwood, Indiana. We saw short wall, behind which were a couple of cannons.

Old Glory in the breeze

Great ID Plaque
It became obvious that this was the location of the Civil War Veteran’s cemetery, complete with a prominent flagpole.

A beautiful, serene setting

An interesting touch for this section

Rest in Peace
Know that Veteran’s Sections in cemeteries should always be considered sacred ground.
Pioneer graves in Greenwood, Indiana Cemetery
Pioneers who were first buried in the Presbyterian and Baptist Cemeteries were reburied in this plot. This info is from the plaque, photo below, that is onsite at the Greenwood Cemetery in Greenwood, Indiana.
We found this as we were in the cemetery looking at interesting grave markers.




Very interesting and it is so nice knowing the graves were moved and not forgotten.
On The Border – Greenwood, IN

We love eating out. Mexican restaurants are one of our favorites. Last week we were in Greenwood, Indiana and found a Mexican restaurant we hadn’t been to called On The Border. It was a good decision to stop, as we enjoyed chimichangas, veggie quesadillas, chips with salsa.
